How will funds be recovered if a candidate breaches his/her contract?
Should an applicant breach his/her contract, s/he will be advised in writing of the amount owed. At that time, the physician will be provided with details about who and where to mail a cheque in the amount owing. The return-of-service contract that the applicant will be required to sign will contain a clause which allows the Ministry to retrieve any outstanding amounts from the physician’s OHIP billings should other collection avenues fail. Repayment must begin within three months of the contract’s breach.
