Accessing Treatments and Care

Not all treatments are appropriate for all people.  Sometimes, your age or other health concerns can mean a certain medication may not be appropriate for you. You and your doctor must work together to choose the treatment plan that best fits your condition.

Even if the medication prescribed by your doctor is authorized by Health Canada, it does not necessarily mean that it will be covered by public or private drug insurance plans.

If the cost of your prescribed medication is not covered, you can advocate to change this for you and for other Canadians.
