THE NEW MSP GMV RULES HAVE BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL JANUARY 1, 2026
**
Starting September 1, 2025, the Medical Services Plan (MSP) is introducing new rules regarding Group Medical Visits (GMVs).
ChangePain Clinic will follow these new regulations to ensure fair and consistent access to care. Please review the most common questions below:
1. How many GMV sessions can I attend per week?
Each patient may attend up to 2.5 hours of GMV sessions per week.
2. How can these 2.5 hours be divided?
This can include one 90-minute session and one 60-minute session. These must be scheduled on different days, as patients may only attend one GMV per day.
3. I’m trying to register for a class and can’t—why?
There is a cap of 20 participants per virtual GMV session. Once the session is full, registration will close automatically.
4. I really want to attend a class, but it’s full. What can I do?
Please email gmv@changepain.ca with your name and the class you’re interested in. We will add you to the waitlist.
5. Are these changes a decision made by ChangePain Clinic?
No. These rules are mandated by MSP, and ChangePain Clinic is following these updated guidelines.
We understand that these changes may not be easy for everyone, and we truly appreciate your patience and understanding as we align with the new MSP guidelines. Our team remains committed to providing high-quality, compassionate care and helping you access the services you need.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact us at gmv@changepain.ca
