由于需求增加和省级支助不足,Algoma公共卫生部寻求为安大略省的老年人牙科方案提供更多资金。 Algoma Public Health seeks more funding for Ontario’s seniors dental program due to rising demand and insufficient provincial support.

2025年,Algoma公共卫生协会请求增加安大略省老年人牙科方案的基础资金,理由是需求增加和省级支持不足。 Algoma Public Health is requesting increased base funding for the Ontario Seniors Dental Program in 2025, citing rising demand and insufficient provincial support. 尽管预算增加了3.6%,达到1 790万美元,但该机构的方案支出仍短缺128 000美元,主要原因是老年人口腔服务利用率很高。 Despite a 3.6% budget increase to $17.9 million, the agency faces a $128,000 shortfall in program expenses, largely due to high utilization of dental services for seniors. 该省只批准将强制性费用分摊方案增加1%,APH说,由于通货膨胀,该方案是不够的。 The province approved only a 1% increase for mandatory cost-shared programs, which APH says is inadequate amid inflation. 虽然通过2028/29确保了感染预防和控制中心的供资,但公共卫生部门仍在等待2025/26付款的正式批准,并对影响服务交付的省级付款延迟表示沮丧。 While Infection Prevention and Control Hub funding is secured through 2028/29, APH continues to await formal approval for 2025/26 disbursements and expresses frustration over delayed provincial payments affecting service delivery.
