Compassionate, Convenient Health Care
Why Do Nurse Practitioners Charge for Private Care?
In Ontario, Nurse Practitioners (NPs) play a vital role in delivering high-quality healthcare, but due to billing restrictions, they cannot bill the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) for certain services. This means that while NPs offer expert care comparable to other healthcare providers, they must charge patients directly for private services.
Unlike family physicians who can bill OHIP for patient visits, NPs in independent practice are not eligible for this funding under current provincial regulations. Charging for services allows NPs to continue providing accessible, comprehensive care and to operate independently, offering patients timely, personalized healthcare when they need it most.
