Apply for or update a direct billing vendor number
Our Supplier Programs Coordinators are in the process of emailing vendors to request documentation to reconcile accounts.
Please note: if you are treating ICBC customers prior to receiving an approved ICBC vendor number or a practitioner addition request approval, you are required to collect payment directly from the customer for those services. We will not accept backdated invoicing for services provided prior to notification of an approved ICBC vendor number.
