MVA Billing

Injuries from a Car Accident

If you have been involved in a car accident, call our clinic to book an appointment to be evaluated by one of our professional physiotherapists. You do not require a referral from a doctor to access physiotherapy services. Your insurance company has forms you will need to complete.

The Ontario government working with Healthcare providers and insurance companies has devised the Injury Guidelines for people injured in car accidents to speed access to rehabilitation. Once your assessment has been completed, your injuries will be designated as Minor or Major. Minor injuries have a maximum of $3,500 for treatment, Major injuries have $50,000.

If you have a medical condition before the accident that was worsened by a minor injury you may not be limited to minor injury maximum benefit.

Physiotherapy visits are submitted to your auto insurance. Treatment is expected to be complete in twelve weeks, starting from initial visit for assessment.

Funding and Injury Guidelines

Following your accident, a health professional will examine you and determine if you have any clinically relevant neurological signs (weakness, changes in senses or sensation and changes in reflexes)
