Non-OHIP services and uninsured medical services in Scarborough
Some medical services are not covered by OHIP. These uninsured services require physician time, administrative support, and secure record handling that falls outside government funding, so a separate fee applies.
Our clinic follows the Ontario Medical Association (OMA) Guide to Uninsured Services to help keep fees fair and consistent for every patient.
Malvern Medical Centre has served the Scarborough community since 1976, and clear, upfront pricing is part of that same commitment to straightforward, dependable care.
