What you should know about the IFHP

In Canada, the IFHP provides limited, temporary coverage of health-care benefits to people in the following groups who aren’t eligible for provincial or territorial health insurance. This includes:

• Resettled refugees
• Refugee claimants
• In-Canada protected persons
• Certain other groups

Please note IFHP does not:

• Cover the cost of health-care services or products that a person may claim (even in part) under a public or private health insurance plan.
• Coordinate benefits with other insurance plans or programs, so co-payments aren’t possible.

For a full list of coverage, please visit the Government of Canada website .

What will the IFHP cover?

The IFHP offers supplemental coverage (similar to the coverage given to social assistance recipients by provincial and territorial governments) for urgent dental care, such as a dental emergency.

How can I enrol?

Applications can be submitted online or via mail. Please visit the Government of Canada website for a complete list of instructions.
