Guest kazore Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 (edited) Does it mean that prep is reimbursed by the canadian public health insurance ? It is provided for free in France, on and covered by most insurances in the US. Im curious to know how it is in Canada.

I don't know about the other provinces but it is not covered in British Columbia, for the average person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plutonium239 Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 It is covered in my country through what we call "Plan Obligatorio de Salud" (Health Obligatory Plan) that is a list of the minimum of an insurance company has to offer to people and with no copays. But you have to be lucky enough in order to be prescribed by a physician. They only believe it is too treat AIDS / HIV not as a pre exposure profilaxis... My country is COLOMBIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sus-tor Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 In Ontario, the public insurance system doesn't typically cover prescription drugs at all, except for those below a certain income line. My private insurance (Sun Life) has covered PrEP without any issues. (Thankfully, since a month's worth costs CAD $1000...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
