Program Goals

The goal of the Health Benefits Program is to cover medically necessary items, services, and travel that:

  • address First Nations peoples’ unique health needs
  • respect First Nations’ cultures and values
  • ensure the program is available for future generations
  • close the health gap between First Nations and non-First Nations in BC
  • focus on wellness and prevention instead of only treating sickness
  • are based on professional judgement, best practices, and evidence-based care​
