About this service
We provide lung transplant patients and caregivers with emergency financial support and access to practical resources. LT Housing Support provides up to $5,000 in emergency funding to patients and caregivers in need. While the BC Ministry of Health covers a lung transplant patient's medical costs, the patient and their caregiver are required to shoulder any pre and post-transplant travel as well as temporary housing and living costs related to their transplant. All BC lung transplants take place at Vancouver General Hospital (VGH). For patients who reside outside the city, this temporary housing requirement can create a cripplingly, if not impossible financial burden.
Who can use it?
Individuals receiving a lung transplant who reside outside the city.
