History
Responsibility for the claims payment component of the Ministry of Health's insurance services had fallen under the Health Insurance Division until 1992, at which time Claims Payment Division was created under the larger umbrella of the Assistant Deputy Ministry of Health Insurance and Systems to take over this function.
In 1993, the name of this Division was changed to Claims Payment Operations, and it was moved under the direction of the Assistant Deputy Minister of Corporate Management and Support.
Claims Payment Operations was administered through a central office responsible for planning, financial services, training, administration, accomodation and security, with direct services provided through 20 regional Ontario Health Insurance offices.
In 1994, Claims Payment Operations was merged with the Registration Program Branch to form the Registration and Claims Branch.
