VANCOUVER — British Columbia's Medical Services Commission has applied for a court injunction against a Telus Health program alleging it is extra-billing for health services.
Telus denies the allegations. It says the fees, $4,650 in the first year and $3,650 in subsequent years, are not for primary care and only cover uninsured services like dietitians, kinesiologists and other health and wellness needs. At a news conference Thursday, Juggy Sihota, a vice-president with Telus Health, said family doctors working with the LifePlus program can offer insured services at their offices to people who have not paid for a membership.
