Canadian Residents

Please bring your health care card with you. Your visit will be covered under your provincial health care plan. However, if you have been out of your home province for more than 6 months you will not be covered and will have to pay for the visit.

Exception: Quebec Health Care does not have a reciprocal billing agreement with Alberta Health Care. You will be required to pay for your visit and will be provided with the paperwork to claim back through Quebec. Please still bring your Quebec Healthcare Card as we can still direct bill Lab work and x rays.

Non Canadian Residents

You will be required to pay for your visit. We do not like direct billing insurance companies, but if you provide us with conformation of payment we will have the insurance company pay us. If you prefer to pay we will provide you with the proper receipts so that you can be reimbursed by your insurance company.

We recommend that you contact your insurance company prior to your visit to ensure you are covered and to see if there is any specific forms they need completing, these must be brought with you. If necessary they can be faxed directly to the clinic: (001) 403 762 5797
