Referrals
Steps 1 and 2 below should be completed concurrently. Patients may be seen for their virtual consult at the treating facility while awaiting MoH funding decision. However, patients should not travel for treatment until funding is approved.
Step 1: Patient Referral
Patient referrals should be made directly to the treatment site coordinator using the relevant site referral form. For Canadian sites currently accepting referrals please refer to the Resources tab*.
*If the initial referral site does not have capacity please refer to an alternate site within Canada and notify the BC Cancer Out-of-Province/Country Coordinator of the change.
Step 2: MoH Funding Application
Complete the BC Cancer Referral Form and compile all supporting documentation included in the checklist. Submit all documentation to the BC Cancer Out-of-Province/Country Coordinator.
If deemed eligible, all documentation will be submitted by the Out of Province Coordinator via email to the MoH with the referring physician copied. The referring physician will be notified directly by the MoH of the funding decision.
