For example, our agreement with the Quebec government for the provincial plan has been signed with the Department of Health because the department is the insurer. The department is the administrator and it is responsible for the program. The Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec, which is the equivalent of the Ontario Drug Benefit Program, is a go-between that administers the agreement that was negotiated between pharmacists and the department.
It’s the same thing for us: we negotiate an agreement with CIC, and Medavie Blue Cross is the administrator that handles the claims.
