DO YOU HAVE FINANCING FOR MEDICAL & COSMETIC SERVICE PAYMENT?
Yes, there is financing available.
The B.C. Medical Services Plan covers some treatments (for example, some types of varicose veins), however many of the services offered are considered either elective or cosmetic and billing is private. There are exceptions to this which are best delineated in a consultation with your doctor.
Some private payers or personal extended benefit plans are helpful in offsetting the cost of cosmetic procedures. An example is ICBC coverage of scars and deformity resulting from a motor vehicle accident.
Our office offers a variety of options for payment and financing of cosmetic procedures. Payment options include personal cheque, debit card, VISA, and Mastercard.
We also offer financing via Credit Medical and MEDICARD.
