Homeopathy

Is homeopathy CRA eligible in Canada?

Yes. Homeopathy services provided by a licensed homeopath are eligible for the Medical Expense Tax Credit (METC) in Ontario. Because METC-eligible services qualify for Health Spending Account (HSA) reimbursement, homeopathy can be claimed through your HSA in those provinces. No prescription is required.

What Qualifies

• Consultations and treatment sessions with a registered homeopath in Ontario
• Follow-up visits and ongoing homeopathic care by a licensed homeopath

Good to Know

• Province matters: Homeopaths are recognized as authorized medical practitioners in Ontario only. Homeopathy services in other provinces are not eligible under this category.
• Documents to keep: Receipt showing the practitioner's name and registration number, date of service, and amount paid.
