Default OHIP - Wait time
Does anyone from Ontario know how long it takes to get a response from OHIP regarding approval for out of country surgery? Whether it be a yay or nay, how long after it was submitted did you hear something back from them?

Thanks!

Could you give me the number you called? Every time I try and call I get no where with voice recordings or I get the run around.

I called tons of numbers but the best bet it to find out where one is located near you---- I think it would be mississauga. I called 1800-387-5559 asked for claims then they told me to call the Hamilton area.

Good luck michelle
