Provincial subsidies for naturopathic medicine were cut by the liberal government on January 1, 2002. At present, there is no MSP coverage available for visits to an ND unless you are on premium assistance. There is limited coverage for premium assistance patients; find out if you have coverage and whether your ND will see premium assistance patients before making an appointment. Most extended health plans (i.e., private plans usually through your employer) do cover visits to NDs. Most plans pay 80% of patient visits but make sure you clarify coverage with your benefits manager PRE-APPOINTMENT CHECKLIST: • Intake Forms-Try to complete them ahead of time and submit them in the patient portal. Otherwise arrive 15 minutes to complete • Lab tests and imaging can bring to the visit or upload to the patient portal • List of current medications & supplements-including brand, dose, and duration of use Return Naturopathic Consultation
