This episode of the Labour Pains: an injured worker podcast series is a discussion of how (and what) prescription medication is covered in Ontario, and whether it is time to expand that coverage for injured workers.
IWC lawyer host Tebasum Durrani explores with Dr Robin Lennox whether universal coverage could address current gaps in access to medication and cost savings. The NDP MPP and family doctor in May 2025 brought forward a motion in the Legislature addressing the impacts of lack of access to drug treatment.
