What is the difference between a Physiotherapist (Physiothérapeute) and a Physiotherapy Technologist (Technologue en physiothérapie) in Quebec?

A Physiothérapeute in Quebec has completed master's level university education, granting them the autonomy to assess patients, make a physiotherapy diagnosis, and develop comprehensive treatment plans. They can also perform certain advanced procedures if they have the required additional qualifications. A Technologue en physiothérapie, on the other hand, has a college diploma (DEC) focused on the technical application of physiotherapy treatments. They play a crucial role in delivering care by implementing treatment plans designed by a physiotherapist or physician, assisting patients with their exercises, applying modalities, and reporting progress back to the supervising professional.

Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Physiotherapy Technologist in QC?

Patients in Quebec can typically access a physiotherapy technologist directly without a physician's referral, which is known as direct access. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may require a referral for reimbursement purposes. It is advisable to check with your insurance provider before your first appointment to ensure coverage.

How can I book an appointment at CISSS de la Montérégie-Est - Hôpital Pierre-Boucher?

You can book an appointment by calling our clinic directly at (450) 468-8111 during our business hours. Many of our practitioners also offer the convenience of online booking through our website.

Is physiotherapy covered by the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?

In Quebec, RAMQ generally does not cover physiotherapy services provided in private clinics. Patients usually pay out-of-pocket or through private insurance. Care received directly in a public hospital or CLSC may be covered if meeting specific criteria. It is recommended to verify your eligibility with RAMQ and check your private insurance plan for coverage details.

Approximately how many physiotherapy sessions will I need?

This varies based on individual needs. After an initial assessment, Danny will be able to give an estimate of the number of sessions required. Regular progress reviews will be conducted to adjust the treatment plan as needed, ensuring optimal recovery.

What kind of clothing should I wear to my physiotherapy appointment?

Wear or bring clothing that allows easy access to the area being treated, such as shorts for knee issues or sleeveless tops for shoulder concerns. The goal is to facilitate effective assessment and treatment.
