Changes to Interim Federal Health Program

 

The federal government recently announced changes to the Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP). Beginning May 1, 2026, people covered under the IFHP will be responsible for a 30% co-pay for certain eligible complementary health services. Occupational therapy is one of the services included in this change. Further details, including a printable poster to help inform patients of the change, are available on the Government of Canada’s website.
