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

In Quebec, RAMQ does not cover chiropractic services provided in private clinics. Patients typically pay out-of-pocket or use private insurance. Care in hospital settings is rare and may be covered differently. It is advisable to verify coverage details with your private insurer and check your extended health benefits.

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

No, chiropractors are primary contact healthcare professionals in Quebec, allowing patients to book directly without a referral. However, some private insurance plans may require a doctor's referral for reimbursement purposes. Patients should check their individual insurance policies for specific requirements.

Will I need to get X-rays before starting chiropractic care?

X-rays are not routinely required for every patient. Dr. Kjorlien will conduct a thorough history and physical examination to determine the necessity of imaging. Imaging is typically recommended to rule out serious conditions such as fractures or significant degeneration, especially if the patient's condition is not improving or if there are red flags, always following established guidelines to minimize radiation exposure.

Does ABC Clinique Santé Vaudreuil offer direct billing to private insurance companies?

Yes, ABC Clinique Santé Vaudreuil offers direct billing to most major private insurance providers such as Canada Life, Sun Life, Manulife, and Green Shield. Patients are advised to bring their insurance cards and verify their coverage with their insurer, as plans and benefits may vary. The patient remains responsible for any co-payments or amounts not covered.

Is chiropractic treatment, especially an adjustment, painful?

Most patients find chiropractic adjustments to be a comfortable and effective procedure. While there may be a brief sensation of pressure or a popping sound, it is rarely painful. If muscles are very tight or joints inflamed, some soreness might occur temporarily. Dr. Kjorlien will tailor the technique to your comfort and needs to ensure a safe experience.
