The Ontario Government 'health' budgetary cuts in December 2004 indeed resulted in the withdrawal of OHIP coverage for chiropractic services, except for x-rays, registered massage services, and most physiotherapy services provided by registered physiotherapists in Ontario. Presently, patients typically need to rely on private insurance or pay for these services out of pocket. If you have any further inquiries or need additional information, feel free to ask...
Does my Private or Group Extended Health Insurance Plan cover Chiropractic care?
- Private or Group Extended Health Insurance: If you have private or group insurance through your employer (each policy varies), it's probable that chiropractic services are covered. Please review your policy to confirm your coverage. If uncertain, feel free to bring your insurance pamphlet to our office, and we'll help you determine your coverage. We'll also assist you in completing the necessary forms for coverage approval.

- Veterans Affairs: If you've served in the Armed Forces, you may have coverage through Veterans Affairs. Contact Dr. Pisarek to understand the specifics of your coverage. We'll support you in completing the essential forms for coverage approval.
- First Nations Peoples: Some chiropractic coverage may be available for First Nations Peoples. Contact Dr. Pisarek for more information and the requirements to access this coverage. We'll assist you in completing the necessary forms for coverage approval.
