The premiums and maximum copayments are calculated based on the annual family income, as indicated by Canada Revenue Agency tax return for the year immediately preceding the current year. All adult plan members pay monthly premiums to be part of the plan. Children 18 and younger will not pay premiums but a parent must be enroled in the plan. All plan members must pay a 30% copayment up to a maximum amount per prescription.
