British Columbia's Medical Services Plan (MSP) and Pharmacare provide you and your family with basic medical insurance. BCAA is here to help you bridge the gaps in provincial coverage through plans that cover you for other services you need and want. These include dental care, vision care, prescriptions, disability benefits and orthodontics, even visits to specialists like physiotherapists, chiropractors, naturopaths, massage therapists and podiatrists.

Health & Dental Insurance Basics

Why do I need health insurance other than the MSP and Pharmacare?

In most cases, if you need dental care, vision care (like eye exams and glasses), prescriptions, disability benefits, orthodontics or visits to specialists like physiotherapists, chiropractors, naturopaths, massage therapists, and podiatrists, it’s not covered.

What does that mean for me?

Gaps in your provincial health insurance plan can leave you and your family paying out-of-pocket for everyday medical and dental expenses. So we’re here to help.

How does BCAA Health & Dental Insurance work?

BCAA Health & Dental Insurance helps you bridge the gap. It saves you money compared to paying out-of-pocket. And with BCAA, you get to mix and match different levels of drug and dental coverage, so you pay only for what your family needs.
