The First Nations Health Authority (FNHA) is providing bulk supply of naloxone nasal spray kits to First Nations community partners and providers of urban harm reduction services for status First Nations clients in British Columbia.

This new approach will help increase access to culturally-safe harm reduction services and naloxone nasal spray kits, as well as support provider education.

Please refer requests for large and frequent quantities of naloxone nasal spray kits to the FNHA at: harmreduction@fnha.ca or by calling 1-855-550-5454.

Please note these changes do not apply across all Pacific Blue Cross plans, only to First Nations community partners and providers of urban harm reduction services for status First Nations clients in British Columbia.

 

Resources

As always, please refer to the Pacific Blue Cross FNHA Fee Supplement for up-to-date billing instructions for naloxone nasal spray dispensed to status First Nation individuals for personal use. There will be changes to the drug benefit program as the FNHA transitions to the new bulk supply process.
