Are services covered under OHIP or insurance?
Our services are not covered by OHIP, but are often covered by extended health insurance plans and are tax-deductible. The coverage for each insurer is different, so please check your plan to confirm coverage for services, the claim procedure, details required on receipts, and whether or not you will require a letter of referral from your physician. If you have extended health coverage, we may be able to bill directly to your insurer (please check with us to confirm if your insurer allows this) or you will submit your receipt to the insurance company after payment to receive reimbursement.
