We happily accept patients from the greater Victoria area!
You do not need a doctor’s referral to see any of the practitioners but some health plans require them on some services if you want reimbursement. Please look in to your plan for details. We bill health plans directly whenever possible. Please email us your extended health information or fill out the insurance intake form in the patient portal (by clicking “book online now”) 2 business days prior to your appointment. We will preapprove you for direct billing.
UVSS undergraduate health plan:
Please do not book one of these services unless you are an undergraduate student and have not opted of the UVSS health plan. No referrals are required to access any of our services. The default enhanced plan covers 80% per appointment, up to $300 for each practitioner, per school year (Sept.-Aug.). The basic plan (you would have needed to downgrade your plan) covers $30/appointment up to $200/school year. See rates below.
GSS graduate health plan:
Graduate students on the GSS health plan only need to pay between $10–20 for each service. A one time per year $10 deductible may apply. No referral is required to access our services. This plan covers $250 per calendar year, per practitioner. Your plan does not cover the dietitian.
Other health plans:
If your plan allows for direct billing we will bill it for you. We need your health insurance information 2 business days before your appointment to preapprove you. If your plan does not allow direct billing, fees are paid up front at the time of treatment. A receipt is issued for you to send in for reimbursement. Please see our extended health page for more details.
