RAND FORMULA
It is a provision of the health insurance agreement between the Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux (MSSS) and the ACDQ (organization recognized by the government to represent Quebec dentists) under which the Régie de l’assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) is authorized to deduct an amount equal to 35% of the payments made to dentists until their annual membership fee has been paid to the ACDQ. The deductions cease when the deducted amounts reach the full amount of the membership fee.
