Hello Students,
An online Patient Fund Form was created to request funding from the Proctor, Scotiabank, UMDAA, etc. funds. To make a request, please go to the
Patient
Fund Form Request Link and complete the online form. You and the instructor will receive a confirmation email (see attached), then the form is submitted to the Associate Dean for approval. Once approved or rejected by the Associate Dean,
you and the instructor will receive another notification email (see attached) letting you know the status of your claim.
Approved forms will be automatically submitted to the finance team for processing,
Rejected forms needing additional information will require a new form to be completed and resubmitted.
Below is the listing, brief description and which dentistry class is able to access each of the funds:
- Dr. Donald B. Proctor Memorial Fund - established in memory of Dr. Proctor to support patient treatment needs that match the learning needs of students. Available to 3rd and 4th year dentistry students.
- Scotiabank Clinical Education Fund in Dentistry - established to help patients get the care they require and help students complete their clinical training. Available to 4th year dentistry only.
- Winnipeg Dental Society Student Clinical Support Fund - established to help support patient care and 4th year dentistry students complete their clinical training. Available to 4th year dentistry only.
- Class of '92 Peter Cortens Dental Care Fund - established in memory of Dr. Cortens to support patient treatment needs that match the learning needs of students. Available to 3rd and 4th year dentistry students.
- University of Manitoba Dental Alumni Association Emergency Oral Health Care Trust Fund - to fund emergency oral health care and minor necessary dental procedures to restore function for individuals who present to the College of Dentistry Emergency Clinic who are without the financial capacity for said services. See Terms of Reference attached for disbursement criteria.
Please note, if you feel you have a patient case that meets the criteria for one of the endowment funds, you must first present the case to your Team Mentor to determine if the case is appropriate for funding and discuss amount of financial support that might
be reasonable. Once you have presented and discussed the case, then proceed with completing the Patient Fund Form Request. Students do not select which of the endowment funds will be used, this is guided by the Associate Dean Clinics as per the Terms of Reference
for the funds. The only exception for this is the UMDAA Emergency Fund where students can follow the guidelines for this (see attached).
