Insurance Coverage

Extended Health Benefits: The vast majority of extended benefits plans (ie. Sun Life, Blue Cross, DesJardins, Canada Life, Manulife, etc.) cover some or all costs associated with individual counselling sessions provided by an RCC. If you intend to seek reimbursement for the cost of sessions under a group plan, please check with your employer to ensure the coverage criteria includes RCCs.

​

If your plan does not cover RCCs but does cover Psychologists, Social Workers, and/or Counsellors with other designations, you can make a request to your employer through the Human Resources Department to adjust the plan to include RCC designation. Many employers are not aware that making this change is easy and can be done at no extra cost to them. Click here to download a template to help with this. Receipts are issued via email and may be needed for health plan reimbursement or as a medical expense toward your personal income tax.

​

ICBC: If you have a recent claim with ICBC, you are eligible to receive funding for 12 counselling session through ICBC at $133.35/ session. Please check with your adjuster to confirm that coverage is available for your situation.

  • If you work with RCCs Thea or Sarah, who are approved ICBC providers, $133.35/ session will be direct billed to ICBC for you and you will simply pay the difference of $24.15. The amounts are subject to change without notice.

  • If you work with RCC Ashley, you will pay the full $157.50 up front and will then submit your receipts to ICBC for reimbursement of $133.35/ session. The amounts are subject to change without notice.

  • If you have an older ICBC claim, you may still be eligible for some coverage for sessions with Thea or Sarah. Please check with your adjuster prior to scheduling a consult to discuss this, and be prepared to provide your claim number, adjuster's contact information, date of accident, and a note from your doctor.
