How long does it take to receive MSP coverage?

Asked 2 years ago
The time it takes to receive coverage under the British Columbia Medical Services Plan can vary based on several factors. Typically, once an application for MSP coverage is submitted, it may take approximately two to three weeks for processing. However, this timeline can change depending on the completeness of the application and the volume of applications being processed at the time. It is important for individuals to ensure that all required information and documentation are submitted correctly to avoid delays. After approval, individuals will receive their BC Health Card in the mail, which serves as proof of their coverage. For the most current information and details regarding processing times, it is advisable to check the official website of the British Columbia Medical Services Plan.
