I am currently accepting patients for ICBC-related injuries! Please bring your claim number and accident date to your first appointment.
We currently are unable to direct-bill to ICBC but you can submit your receipts to ICBC for reimbursement.
We don’t add a co-pay for appointments covered by ICBC, which helps to improve access for those injured in a car accident.
-
We do not have a contract with WSBC and, therefore, will not be able to help you through these injuries unless your adjuster has given you special permission to see a Physiotherapist without a WSBC contract.
