The Ministry approved coverage up to $961.24 towards this amount, which the Ministry said was the unused balance of the Appellant’s 2-year, $1,000.00 coverage limit for basic dental services.
The Appellant also submitted a treatment plan from a denturist for complete upper and lower dentures, at a total cost of $4,750.00. The Ministry approved coverage for the dentures up to $1,162.50, which is the maximum fee set out in the Schedule of Fee Allowances – Denturist.
Additional Evidence:
Appellant:
In the Notice of Appeal, the Appellant stated that he lives in a small community with no access to transportation to travel elsewhere to find a denturist who charges less.
At the hearing the Appellant provided two additional documents:
EAAT003 (30/08/23) 5
Appeal Number 2024-0138 Standard dental claim form signed by the dentist and the Appellant, listing some of the dental services in the first treatment plan proposal dated February 29, 2024. The list says “continued on next page”, but the next page was not provided to the Panel. Additional treatment plan proposal from the dentist, dated April 25, 2024, for two fee items #73111, alveoloplasty, in the total amount of $348.00.
At the hearing, the Appellant stated: He was in very bad pain with his teeth and needed to be put to sleep for the extraction of five teeth, which took two hours. The dentist did not charge him for the anaesthetic. The dentist had sent in a pre-authorization for $427 in January 2024, but the dentist’s office only did an x-ray to see if he needed the surgery. He maintains that the dentist should not have sent a pre-authorization request for that much, they should only have sent a pre-authorization for the extractions. He spoke to a Ministry Community Integration Specialist who told him the Ministry would cover the dental work and pay for his dentures. The Appellant showed the Panel the business card of the Community Integration Specialist. He now needs more dental work done, as shown on the treatment plan dated April 25, 2024, for dental services that will cost another $348.00. He has to pay $3,948.00 in addition to the amount the Ministry has agreed to pay, and while he is trying to save all the money he can, he needs more help from the Ministry to pay for the dental work he needs, so that he can eat.
In answer to questions from the Panel, the Appellant said: The Ministry told him to send the papers from the dentist, they did not tell him that the Ministry would only pay $1,000.00. He was in so much pain, he could not wait any longer to have the extractions done.
Admissibility of Additional Evidence:
The Ministry did not object to the additional documents and the additional oral evidence of the Appellant. The documents relate to the dental services that the Appellant needed, and therefore the Panel finds that the evidence is reasonably necessary to determine the issues in the appeal. The Panel finds that the additional evidence is admissible under section 22(4) of the Employment and Assistance Act.
EAAT003 (30/08/23) 6
Appeal Number 2024-0138 Part F – Reasons for Panel Decision The issue on appeal is whether the Ministry was reasonable in denying a health supplement for dental services in excess of the rates set out in the Schedule of Fee Allowances – Dentist, the Schedule of Fee Allowances – Emergency Services - Dentist and Schedule of Fee Allowances – Denturist under Schedule C of the Regulation.
Appellant’s Position:
The Appellant says that the extractions were needed urgently, because he was in extreme pain, and he could not eat. He argues that the amounts the Ministry has agreed to pay are not enough to cover even minimal dental services, let alone the extensive dental services he needs. He says that there is no dentist in his community who would provide dental services for the fees on the Ministry’s schedule, and he does not have transit to go to another community to find a less expensive provider, if one exists. He says that he is doing everything he can to save money, but being on disability assistance, he does not have enough money to pay the dentist or the denturist.
Ministry Position:
The Ministry acknowledges that the Schedules of Fee Allowances for Dentists and Denturists have not kept up with current fees charged by dentists and denturists. However, the Ministry says that it is only allowed to authorize coverage as set out in the legislation, and under the legislation they cannot approve fees for more than the amounts set out in the Schedules. Further, there is a coverage limit of $1,000 for basic dental services in a two year period. The Ministry maintains that it has approved the maximum fees allowed under the legislation.
The Ministry also says it considered whether the dental services could be covered as a crisis supplement, but that, under section 57(3) of the Regulation, the Ministry may not provide a crisis supplement for dental services.
Panel Decision:
Under the Regulation, the Ministry is authorized to provide a recipient of disability assistance with health supplements for dental supplements, emergency dental supplements and crown and bridgework supplements. Under Schedule C of the Regulation, fees for dentists and denturists are limited to the amounts set out in the Schedule of Fee Allowances – Dentists, Schedule of Fee Allowances – Emergency Dental – Dentists, and Schedule of Fee Allowances – Denturists.
EAAT003 (30/08/23) 7
Basic Dental Services:
Appeal Number 2024-0138
Under Schedule C of the Regulation, the dental supplement for basic dental services is also limited to $1,000.00 for a two year period. The current two-year period runs from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2024under section 4(1) of Schedule C of the Regulation.
The Appellant was in pain and urgently needed extensive dental extractions. Following the extractions, he would need upper and lower dentures. His dentist provided a treatment plan proposal with fees totalling $6,381.00. The denturist provided a treatment plan for complete upper and lower dentures for a total of $4,750.
The Ministry reviewed the treatment plans and determined that not all of the fee items in the dentist’s treatment plan proposal were in the Schedule of Fee Allowances. For the fee items that were in the Schedule of Fee Allowances, the Ministry determined that the Ministry rates totalled $2,149.63. After reviewing the Schedules of Fee Allowances, the Panel finds that the Ministry correctly determined the fee items and fee rates for the dental services in the treatment plan proposals, under the various Schedules of Fee Allowances.
The Ministry had paid $38.76 on January 25, 2024, for a radiograph, leaving $961.24 out of the $1,000.00 coverage limit, so the Ministry approved coverage for basic dental services for $961.24. (The Appellant was quite concerned that the dentist had submitted a preauthorization request for $427.60 before the appointment when the radiograph was taken; however, the Panel confirms that only the actual payment of $38.76 was deducted from his $1,000.00 coverage limit.) The Panel finds that the Ministry correctly determined the amount remaining in the two-year, $1,000.00 coverage limit for dental services under Schedule C, section 4 of the Regulation. The Panel also finds that the legislation does not permit the Ministry to provide more than $1,000.00 coverage for basic dental services in a two year period from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2024.
Emergency Dental Services:
The Ministry determined that some of the dental services were emergency dental services, needed for immediate relief of pain. Under section 69 of the Regulation, the Ministry can provide coverage for eligible recipients for emergency dental services over the $1,000.00 coverage limit, as a health supplement for a person who faces a direct and imminent life threatening health need. The Ministry accepted that the Appellant met the eligibility requirements under section 69 of the Regulation, and his eligibility is not in issue in this
EAAT003 (30/08/23) 8
Appeal Number 2024-0138 appeal. However, the Ministry may only provide a health supplement for emergency dental services at the rates set out in the Schedule of Fee Allowances – Emergency Dental – Dentist. After reviewing the Schedules of Fee Allowances , the Panel finds that the Ministry correctly determined the allowable fees for emergency dental services under the Regulation. The Panel also finds that the Ministry is not authorized under the legislation to provide a health supplement for emergency dental services at rates that are more than the rates set out in the Schedule of Fee Allowances – Emergency Dental – Dentist.
Dentures:
The Ministry approved the Appellant’s request for coverage for complete upper and lower dentures, at the maximum rate set out in the Schedule of Fee Allowances – Denturists. The Panel finds that the Ministry is not authorized under the legislation to provide a denture supplement for a fee that is more than the rate set out in the Schedule of Fee Allowances – Emergency Dental – Dentist.
Summary:
All the amounts approved by the Ministry are less than the fees actually charged by the dentist and the denturist. The Ministry acknowledges that the Schedules of Fee Allowances have not been updated for a number of years. The Panel notes that the Schedules for Dentists were published in 2017, and for denturists, 2010. The Ministry also acknowledges that the Schedules do not reflect the actual fees charged by dentists and denturists in 2024. However, the Ministry says that it has no discretion to provide dental supplements except as authorized in the legislation. The Ministry has determined that the Appellant was eligible to receive $961.24 for basic dental services, $1,253.77 for emergency dental services and $1,162.50 for upper and lower dentures and says those are the maximum amounts it can provide under the legislation.
The Panel agrees, and finds that the Ministry’s reconsideration decision, in which it denied coverage for fee items not listed in the Schedule of Fee Allowances – Dentist, denied coverage in excess of the rates listed in the Schedules of Fee Allowances for Dentists and Denturists, and denied coverage for basic dental services in excess of the two-year, $1,000.00 coverage limit, was a reasonable application of the legislation in the Appellant’s circumstances. The outcome leaves the Appellant with an unavoidable shortfall that he cannot afford to pay, but the legislation does not permit the Ministry to provide coverage for more than the amounts set out in the reconsideration decision: $961.24 for basic dental services, $1,253.77 for emergency dental services and $1162.50 for upper and lower dentures.
EAAT003 (30/08/23) 9
Crisis Supplement for Dental Services:
Appeal Number 2024-0138
The Ministry also considered whether it could provide a crisis supplement for the dental services, but determined that, under section 57(3) of the Regulation, it cannot provide a crisis supplement for a supplement described in Schedule C. The Panel finds that the Ministry is not authorized under the legislation to provide a supplement for dental services, as dental services are a supplement described in Schedule C. Therefore, the Panel finds that the Ministry’s determination that it could not provide a crisis supplement for the dental services was a reasonable application of the legislation in the Appellant’s circumstances.
Conclusion:
The Panel finds that the Ministry’s reconsideration decision, in which the Ministry: denied coverage for fee items not listed in the Schedule of Fee Allowances – Dentist; denied coverage for dental services in excess of the rates set out in the Schedule of Fee Allowances – Dentist, the Schedule of Fee Allowances – Emergency Services – Dentist and the Schedule of Fee Allowances – Denturist under Schedule C of the Employment and Assistance for Persons with Disabilities Regulation (“Regulation”), and denied coverage for basic dental services in excess of the two-year, $1,000 coverage limit for dental services was a reasonable application of the legislation in the Appellant’s circumstances.
The Panel confirms the Ministry decision. The Appellant is not successful in the appeal.
