  • It is important to realize that Alberta Health and Wellness only pays for "essential services", and will not reimburse us for services we do for you which they deem as "non-essential."
     

  • Services that are not included in their list of benefits are therefore called PRIVATE SERVICES when done, and we have to hold the patients receiving these services responsible for payment.
     

  • Typical non-insured medical services are:
     
    • Cosmetic procedures;
       
    • Aviation medical examinations;
       
    • Immigration medical examinations;
       
    • Drivers’ medical examinations;
       
    • Telephonic services;
       
    • Flu vaccinations (patients that do not qualify according to the AH&W criteria);
       
    • Bandages and dressings we use;
       
    • Medical certificates;
       
    • Letters on your behalf ;
       
    • Completion of Blue Cross prescription authorization forms ;
       
    • Completion of disability parking permits;
       
    • Disability tax credit forms;
       
    • Insurance forms;
       
    • MVA reports;
       
    • Chart transfers;
       
    • Photo-copies;
       
    • Physician review time of charts;
       
    • “No-show” for appointments.
       
  • Payments for private services are accepted in cash or a cheque supported by picture ID and other acceptable ID.
     
  • We do not have VISA or MASTER card facilities.
     
  • Should a cheque be returned by the bank without payment, a $50.00 service charge will be added to the owed amount. Payment of the complete outstanding account will be required immediately.
     
  • Outstanding accounts will be billed accumulative interest at 3% per month.
