FUNDING

We handle the paperwork with your funder

Before your first visit, we walk you through the options that apply to you. Then we apply on your behalf and bill most programs directly.

We bill these directly

  • BC Fair PharmaCare
  • WorkSafeBC and ICBC claims
  • Persons with Disabilities (PWD) through the Ministry
  • First Nations Health Authority
  • War Amps, Variety, CKNW Kids’ Fund and other charities

Private health plans

Many workplace extended health plans, such as PBC and Manulife, fund orthotics and prosthetics. We don’t bill private plans directly, so you’ll submit that claim yourself.

QUESTIONS

North Shore clinic FAQ

Do I need a doctor’s referral to book?

No. You can book an assessment directly. If a device is right for you, you’ll need a prescription from your family doctor or specialist before we make it, and we provide a template with the correct wording.

Where do I park?

Street parking is available around the building. You can also use the Lonsdale Place Parkade at 1200 Lonsdale Avenue.

Can I get orthotics or bracing at North Shore?

No. The North Shore location focuses on prosthetics only. Orthotic care, including scoliosis bracing and baby helmets, is available at our Coquitlam and Surrey clinics.

Can I walk in?

No. North Shore appointments are booked in advance. Call 604.520.7332 or use the form on this page.

How long is the first appointment?

Assessments usually take about an hour. If you need devices for more than one limb, we book around 90 minutes so nothing is rushed.

How long until my device is ready?

Upper and lower limb prostheses usually take 4 to 6 weeks from your assessment.

Can you bill my funding program directly?

For most public and charitable programs, yes, including PharmaCare, WorkSafeBC, ICBC, PWD and FNHA. Private extended health plans are the exception: you submit those claims yourself.
