No. You need alternate coverage. OHIP doesn't cover dental. On the health insurance, it doesn't cover prescriptions (I think), eye exams, life insurance, etc..

So... If we opt out, we will be refunded the fees we paid in the supplementary at the beginning of the year in our student account?

Yes, I think it's like 165 if you opt out of both.

Quick question--the Student ID field refers to your student#, not the sequence that comes before the @ sign in our Mac emails, right?

Student ID refers to the 7 digit number assigned by the university to you. eg 0123456
