If you have an extended health care plan through work or personal insurance, you may be able to use it for services like physiotherapy, chiropractic care, massage therapy, acupuncture, and more. We help you understand what’s typically needed for claims, offer direct billing when available, and make sure you know any remaining balance before treatment starts.

Extended Health Care Plan

How Extended Health Benefits Work

Extended health plans help cover services that aren’t typically paid by OHIP. Coverage depends on your specific policy (percent covered, annual maximums, per-visit limits, deductibles, and whether a referral is required).

Direct billing (when available) means we submit the claim electronically to your insurer. If your plan covers only part of the visit (for example 80%), you pay the remaining balance and receive a receipt for your

What to Expect at Your First Visit

Your first appointment is designed to make your care plan and insurance process simple.

1) Confirm what you’re booking for

We match you with the right service (physio, chiro, massage, acupuncture) based on your goals and symptoms.

2) Coverage info (if you want direct billing)

Bring your insurance card or plan details (provider name + policy number + member ID). If direct billing isn’t available for your plan, we’ll provide the receipt you need to submit the claim yourself.

3) Assessment + plan

Your clinician assesses your condition and builds a plan with clear milestones. We focus on functional outcomes—not just short-term relief.

What Services Are Commonly Covered

Coverage varies by plan, but extended benefits often include paramedical services such as:

How Billing, Receipts, and Coverage Limits Work

Most plan issues come down to limits—not the service itself. Here’s what matters:

  • Annual maximums: many plans reset by calendar year (often Dec 31). Use-it-or-lose-it is common.
  • Per-visit caps / “customary” limits: your plan may reimburse only up to a set amount per visit—even if your booklet says “100%.”
  • Deductibles / co-insurance: you may still have a portion to pay even with direct billing.
  • Referral requirements: Ontario doesn’t require a referral for physio by law, but some insurers require one for reimbursement.

Two-plan coverage (Coordination of Benefits):
If you and your spouse/parent have coverage, plans may coordinate so the combined reimbursement can be up to 100% of the claim (but not more than the total cost).

How to Get Started

Before your first visit, ask your insurer these 6 questions (or we can help you figure out what to ask):

  • What’s my annual maximum for this service?
  • What’s the per-visit maximum (or “customary” amount)?
  • What % is covered (80%, 90%, 100%)?
  • Is there a deductible or co-pay?
  • Do you require a doctor’s referral for reimbursement?
  • Do you support direct billing / e-claims?

Frequently Asked Questions About Extended Health Care Plans

It’s private insurance (often through work) that helps pay for health services not covered by OHIP, such as physiotherapy, chiro, massage, acupuncture, and more.

We can direct bill when your insurer supports e-claims. If there’s a remaining balance (deductible/co-insurance), you pay that portion and receive a receipt.

Not always. Many plans have per-visit caps or “customary” limits even when they advertise 100% coverage, so reimbursement can be less than expected.

Some plans require a referral for reimbursement even if the service itself doesn’t require one to book. Check your policy—if needed, we’ll tell you what to ask.

Insurer name + policy number + member ID (and sometimes your date of birth). Bring your insurance card or plan details.

Often yes. Plans can coordinate so the combined reimbursement is up to 100% of the claim total (not more).

Many plans have annual maximums that reset each calendar year. If you’re unsure, check your insurer portal or benefits booklet.

That’s common. We’ll tell you the expected remaining balance before treatment, and you’ll get receipts for any portion you pay.
