Mostly dental, chiropractics, massage, medical premiums that I pay at work. I keep every receipt that is medical related and claim it. here's a link to the CCRA site to help you determine what is allowed:
Which medical expenses are eligible?

Then I was looking at a linq that said manitoba covers it ?
I was soposto go to red deer in april for bypass ,but changed my mind and had it here to be close to my doctor and family.
Does anyone know how can I get reimbursed for this if it is true it is covered. I went in debt for a few years for this and if there is any hope of getting my money back our dream of a better home....

I am researching getting banded and am looking at going to Maples. Is that where you went? If it was, can you tell me abou tit? Thier professionailsm, service ect.

Its been awhile since I've been in this site.
To answer the question,they're great at maples.I really like the doctors and the dietitian is nice. Jen is great at the clinic she answers all or gets your questions answered.
After the surgery you have the doctors pager numbers if you need them,Jen is available most times. I've even e-mailed with the doctors a couple of times when I had some issues. Over all its been great I didn't start loosing weight as soon as I had hoped,but I have started now so I feel better.I had my surgery in feb. Its been 3or4 fiills now and I'm going for another next week.
I really hope that a group starts soon because I'm not that good on the computer and don't get to much time for it either.
Anyways I guess thats about it,best of luck in your decision!
