What is MOCAP?
The Medical On-Call Availability Program (MOCAP) was created in 2002. MOCAP provides a contractual framework to ensure the availability of physicians to respond to emergency situations for patients throughout the province. The current approximate overall value of the Program is $135 million per annum, province wide.
The framework of the Program is described in Appendix G of the Physician Master Agreement. Currently, the levels of MOCAP are:
- On Site/On Call: $357,500 for 24/7/52
- Level 1: $247,500 for 24/7/52
- Level 2: $181,500 for 24/7/52
- Level 3: $77,000 for 24/7/52
- Doctor of the Day: $400 per 24 hour period or $146,000 for 365 days
- Call Back: $250 per incident, billed on case-by-case basis
MOCAP agreements are based on template contracts as laid out in the Physician Master Agreement.
The Doctors of BC and government participated in a review of MOCAP and produced a report on December 5, 2018.
