Gender confirming surgery is insured under PEI Medicare when prior authorization has been obtained from Health PEI. Your family physician or nurse practitioner will need to complete this form and provide the necessary attachments to Health PEI's Out-of-Province Coordinator.
The Medical Staff Bylaws are intended to promote consistency across the province where required by legislation or ministerial direction, while providing flexibility in organizational structural issues so Health PEI can address individual facility circumstances and needs.
