Acupuncture is not covered by MSP for most patients. It is one of the treatments MSP’s supplementary benefits pay a set amount toward, for a limited number of visits a year, and only for patients receiving premium assistance. Otherwise it is paid by the patient and claimed on an extended-health plan where one exists.
No. Registered acupuncturists in British Columbia are direct-access practitioners and no referral is needed to book. Your own plan may still ask for one before reimbursing.
