What Payment Options Are There?
At AMS Medical & Rehabilitation Centre, we provide multiple options to help you pay for your treatments. We recognize that special circumstances may exist, and that an extended course of physical therapy is a costly venture. We work closely with your insurance company to get the appropriate payment amounts on your behalf.
Although all our patients are ultimately responsible for their bill, most use one or more of the options listed here, to make sure you get access to the treatment you need.
What Payment Methods Do You Accept?
We accept cash, debit cards, and MasterCard, Visa, and American Express.
In some cases we can also arrange payment directly from your insurance provider (please inquire in advance).
Are You Registered With CNESST, SAAQ, Interim Federal Health Program , Veteran’s Affairs, And The RCMP Coverage?
Yes, we are registered with all of these and can bill them directly with approval. If you were injured in a car accident we will bill the SAAQ and this covers your visits completely, you will have nothing extra to pay. If you were injured at work we will bill the CNESST directly.
I Have Insurance Coverage. How Does That Work?
Most insurance plans will cover a large portion, or sometimes all of your treatments. You should call your insurance company to verify what percentage your plan covers. Also, depending on the situation and insurer, there is sometimes a dollar limit to how much per year insurance will cover for a certain treatment.
Will My Insurance Pay For My Treatment?
Most insurance companies cover physiotherapy, occupational therapy, acupuncture, massage therapy and psychology services, and possibly some other services. Depending on your specific insurance plan, and on the circumstances, all or most of these services may or may not be covered. It is important to verify the situation with your insurance company and find out which services they cover, for what amount, and under what circumstances. In some cases a medical referral may be required by your insurance company.
Do You Work Directly With Insurance Companies?
We offer direct billing to the top 10 insurers, covering 85% of Canadians who have private insurance. For some insurance companies, we work directly with them. In these cases we can bill your insurance company directly for your physiotherapy treatments. See our payment information page for a full list of insurance companies we work with.
Do I Need To Get Reimbursed By My Insurance Company?
Often that is how it works. You pay for the treatment, we supply a receipt, and you send this in for reimbursement from your private insurance company. (Usually you would also need to fill out a form that the insurance company provides.) You should contact your insurance company to verify that you are eligible and inquire about the details (what percentage do they pay, is there a limit).
