When can Ontario residents expect reimbursement of CMPA fees?

[spontaneouscombustion]

Hi guys,

 

Do any Ontario residents know when we can expect our first deposit for the MLP reimbursement program (for CMPA fees)? I know the website states that the first deposit will be in July, but is that for incoming residents as well?

 

Just wondering what happened with past residents. Also, it is normal to not hear back from the MLP Reimbursement office after faxing off the forms? I sent mine in about a month ago and haven't heard anything.

I phoned and asked. October.

yeah it is quarterly and you have to actually pay the fees before you can get a refund so there is a lag.

what about for already-enrolled residents going into another year of residency? I think there should be a july disbursement?

Thanks elmocookie and rrmorelan!

 

I got another question if anyone knows - aside from CPP and EI, what else is deducted from out paycheque? I know registration fees vary, but how much goes toward PARO fees?

how are you being paid? every two weeks? Twice a month etc.

 

It probably be easier just to give you the total

 

by the way today the july cmpa reimbursement came in.

Whoa you guys get CMPA fees back?

well 80% of them through a governmental program in Ontario.

Bi weekly.

 

The gross came out to be around $1350 before any CCP/EI or tax deductions for the first 2 weeks (about 56 hours, since there were 7 work days x 8 hours per day).

 

For some reason, it doesn't list any deductions for PARO or long term disability. Could they have forgotten? I could have sworn PARO dues were supposed to automatically be remitted...

I think most provinces have a program. Which province are you from?

BC. I am unaware of any reimbursement.

As a PGY 1 I earned 1500 every two weeks. That is not including the call bonus which is handled differently at various centres but at most would be every other pay cheque.

 

We are in the process of negotiating our new PARO contract - so their may be a small raise in theory coming. Hard to say though as the government is playing hard ball again. Still with a no increases in the past two years hopefully we can materialize something.

 

ha - maybe next year once call is settled I will try to join the board of PARO at Ottawa. Might be interesting.

Also keep in mind that ON CMPA fees for residents are about twice as high as elsewhere in the country...

Sorry to revive an old thread.

Anyone knows when is the CMPA reimbursement date (MLP) for October 2018? For Ontario medical residents who opt for the quarterly payment option. Thanks

Thanks much appreciated! If only they reimburse 100% CMPA fees for medical residents, one could only dream
