Canada: good to know

  • What visitors pay. BC Centre for Disease Control's Provincial STI Clinic is free and does not require BC health coverage (MSP).
  • PEP in this country. HIM says the fastest way to get PEP is a hospital emergency room, and warns that without MSP an emergency room will dispense PEP but you or your insurer will pay a significant amount. HIM's Vancouver health centres offer PEP to walk-ins during opening hours without an MSP number (identification is needed).

Emergency number: 911
