Insurance

Am I covered by insurance?

This is a question that’s best left for your insurance provider, as they’ll have all the pertinent information regarding whether semaglutide prescriptions in British Columbia are covered under your current benefits package.

The good news is that if your insurer does cover getting semaglutide in British Columbia, Felix can ship your medications directly to your door, at no additional cost.

Does Felix accept all insurance companies in British Columbia?

Currently, Felix accepts all registered insurance companies in British Columbia that provide coverage for semaglutide prescriptions. However, not all insurance companies/benefits packages provide coverage for semaglutide.

If you’re unsure whether semaglutide is covered by your current insurance package, we’d recommend reaching out to your provider for more information.

Is the online visit covered by my insurance or provincial health plans?

Due to the fact that Felix online assessments are considered asynchronous, they are currently not covered by insurance companies or provincial health plans. This means there will be a small visit fee charged, depending on the category of treatment you’re requesting.

The visits are considered asynchronous, because they are done through a secure, chat-based system.

Is the medication covered by my insurance or provincial health plans?

Thankfully, semaglutide is covered by BC Pharmacare, as long as you meet certain specific criteria. You can learn more about whether you could be eligible here.

Also, there are a number of different insurance companies that service BC, which do provide at least partial coverage for semaglutide prescriptions. Contact your insurer to see whether they offer any coverage for getting semaglutide online in British Columbia.

If you’re not sure whether your provider covers semaglutide, contact them to ask. This way, you won’t potentially miss out on the opportunity to have some of the costs associated with semaglutide prescriptions be covered under your existing insurance coverage.

If your practitioner has determined a prescription treatment is appropriate, they will approve your visit and write you a prescription. Our pharmacy will then ship your prescription to your home.

You’ll be able to message your healthcare practitioner if you have questions or want to make changes to your treatment at any time.

Do I need to complete my online visit at a scheduled time?

No. We use an asynchronous telemedicine model so you can complete your online visit in your own time and we save your progress so you can come back later to finish it.

Felix 101

What is Felix?

Felix is Canada’s first truly integrated healthcare platform. We provide on-demand treatment for everyday health needs like weight loss, mental health, sexual health, and more. Founded in 2019, our digital-first approach to healthcare includes everything from diagnosis to prescription — all accessible from the comfort of home.

Does Felix replace my doctor?

No. Felix provides a faster, hassle-free way for you to get a treatment plan for certain conditions, but our service does not replace your primary care provider. For matters that extend beyond obtaining a lifestyle treatment safely and easily, we encourage you to consult your primary health practitioner in person — whether for checkups, personal health concerns, or to inform them about your current treatments or treatment plans.

Can I be accurately assessed remotely?

Absolutely. Our online assessments have been designed to ask all the necessary questions required for diagnosis. We've worked with specialists to create an assessment process that can provide sufficient information for the healthcare practitioner to determine whether or not you are eligible for a prescription and craft an appropriate treatment plan.

It's an emergency. What do I do?

Call 911 or proceed to your nearest emergency room immediately. Felix is not intended for medical emergencies. Once the emergency has been addressed or resolved, contact your prescribing practitioner to inform them of your experience as this may impact your current treatment plan.

Who can use Felix?

Anyone who is 18 years or older older (16 or older for acne and birth control prescriptions), and is located in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Saskatchewan or Ontario. We cannot ship treatments outside of these provinces at this time.

Our Healthcare Practitioners

How do I communicate with my Felix practitioner?

Your Felix practitioner will message you via secure instant message. You’ll receive an email when you have a new message and can respond to these from within your Felix account.

Can I see the same Felix practitioner after my initial assessment?

You will have the ability to chat with your designated Felix practitioner for the entirety of your prescription length. When your prescription is nearing completion, we will email you to submit a checkup visit so one of our prescribers can renew your prescription. 

Our matching system is based on availability, so we can’t guarantee you’ll be paired with the same healthcare practitioner at your renewal visit.

Who are the practitioners that will be reviewing my online visit?

They are all licensed, real Canadian healthcare practitioners! All online visits submitted via Felix are reviewed by them and they must be licensed in your province to prescribe you the medication. It is these healthcare practitioners, and not Felix, who determine whether or not to write you a prescription, as well as the appropriate dosage (where applicable).

What does your medical team do?

Our medical team and board members help oversee each of our treatments to ensure our medical assessments are thorough, safe, personalized, and provide best-in-class care. Our pharmacists provide treatment support through medication counselling and education.
