Paramedical Disciplines

Paramedical disciplines refer to regulated health professionals who provide therapy or rehabilitation services outside of hospital settings. Common examples include physiotherapists, chiropractors, massage therapists, acupuncturists, naturopaths, osteopaths, psychologists, and speech-language pathologists.

‍

Plans typically reimburse a percentage of eligible costs per visit, per practitioner, or within a combined maximum for all disciplines. These services promote physical and mental well-being, helping individuals recover from injuries and maintain overall health.

‍

Example:

‍

If your plan covers $500 per year per practitioner, you may claim up to $500 for massage therapy and another $500 for chiropractic care.

‍

What to Watch For:

‍

Check per-visit and per-year limits, as well as combined maximums. Some providers may charge more than the reasonable and customary rate.
