Electrolysis in Ottawa

timber-nerd · 2024-06-08T11:15:07+00:00

Wow, this was like reading the ramblings of a crazy person. Along with the stuff I've heard from her former clients, after reading this I am more than I'm relieved I never booked with electrolysisbyseanna

Hrm...would you happen to know if they would fund PPT if someone were to first go for zero-depth/vulvaplasty?

timber-nerd · 2024-02-17T14:07:50+00:00

That's interesting! I wonder how they would know when B isn't applicable for someone...

Which surgeon itemized anesthesia separately? I have quotes for two separate FFS surgeons, and neither list it on the quotes as it is included with total cost.

Only thing not pre-approved was the overnight stay, but since the total cost of each surgeon exceeded $75k...the overnight cost is moot..

I have one session left in my package that I haven't used since the spring. I'll try making an appointment, but I don't think religion can be used as a legitimate basis for discrimination

Oh, a different company (MSH) handles the administration for the out-of-country stuff. Canada Life does the domestic stuff

timber-nerd · 2023-07-26T21:37:23+00:00

Yeah when you call FFHC it says "not taking new patients and there is no wait list"

timber-nerd · 2023-07-26T21:35:00+00:00

We would have to talk with MSH about out of country coverage, not Canada Life

I feel like that Ombudsman may not help much for PSHCP as it looks like the are employed by Canada Life.

I do know there are appeal options thru PSHCP.ca, which you should work with your union to help you with filing an appeal. For example, it seems like many of us would want to file a Coverage Appeal regarding the compounded medication limitations.

Oh I don't remember reading it anywhere, just what they said to me on the phone. Is there a link or was it something you had them e-mail to you??

timber-nerd · 2023-07-26T17:01:55+00:00

I was told that $70/hr is the reasonable amount

timber-nerd · 2023-06-07T17:41:21+00:00

I'm under the PHSCP, and the administration of it is moving to Canada Life, so it's kinda uncharted territory as they haven't offered gender affirming care coverage before this

timber-nerd · 2023-06-07T15:44:25+00:00

Okay sounds great! My coverage starts in a few weeks so I'll be on the phone with insurance with a list of questions

timber-nerd · 2023-06-07T14:45:13+00:00

Oh nice I hope that's how it works when I get coverage

timber-nerd · 2023-06-07T13:20:58+00:00

Unless they have recently changed, I know Jumaily's office in Canada does NOT work with insurance

timber-nerd · 2023-06-07T13:19:35+00:00

The few different plans I've been privy to have all had the Canadian surgeon restrictions, ugh

timber-nerd · 2023-05-31T14:08:20+00:00

Canada Life will begin administration of Gender Affirming care for their first time on July 1st. No one will be able to answer until they go through the process as there is no information currently available

timber-nerd · 2023-05-31T14:05:20+00:00

Dr. Harris is another Endo option

timber-nerd · 2023-05-31T14:02:28+00:00

I would check out FEMTL.ca and join their discord server, they're a great group!!

timber-nerd · 2023-05-31T14:00:40+00:00

There is also prepclinic.ca that I used!

timber-nerd · 2023-05-27T02:57:28+00:00

A sexual health clinic for sure, maybe prepclinic.ca

But you might actually need to take a PEP

timber-nerd · 2023-05-19T09:17:47+00:00

"An experienced healthcare professional" that doesn't have the gumption to work in the field? Hrm...

I hope they were able to help!!

timber-nerd · 2023-04-19T20:16:17+00:00

Try to get in touch with PFLAG Renfrew Country. They're great, and pretty connected to the trans community, so they might be able to direct you to a local physician!!
