| Description: |
The Palliative Care Program provides benefits for patients who are in the late stages of a terminal illness and for whom treatment aimed at cure or prolonging of life is no longer deemed appropriate, but for whom care is aimed at improving or maintaining the quality of remaining life (eg. management of symptoms such as pain, nausea and stress). The patient's physician must submit a completed "Drug Plan Request for Palliative Care Coverage" form to the Drug Plan in order to register a patient for this program. |
