Insurance & Billing
Insurance and direct billing
Every practitioner at Fittopia Health Care is registered in their field, so every paid visit comes with an official receipt you can submit to your extended health plan. Direct billing is available for many extended-health insurers.
How It Works
Three simple steps
Using your extended health benefits at the clinic is straightforward.
Book your appointment
Book online any time to see live availability, or call the clinic and we will help you choose the right service and practitioner.
We treat you and issue your receipt
After your visit you receive an official receipt that includes your practitioner's registration number, the detail extended health plans look for.
Submit to your extended health plan
Send the receipt to your plan for reimbursement, or ask us about direct billing so the covered portion goes straight to your insurer.
Direct Billing
We can often bill your plan directly
Direct billing is available for many extended-health insurers, so the covered portion of your visit is billed to your plan and you only pay any remaining balance.
Ask about direct billing when you book, or call (604) 304-7779 and we will confirm whether your plan can be billed directly before your appointment.
In-gym physiotherapy at Fittopia Fitness Center
In-gym physiotherapy with Winston Yeung at Fittopia Fitness Center, 7951 Alderbridge Way Unit 155, Richmond, BC V6X 2A4, direct-bills the following insurers. This list applies to in-gym physiotherapy only; for every other service at the clinic, direct billing is available for many extended-health insurers, so ask when you book.
Bring your benefits card to your first appointment. Coverage varies by plan, so confirm your physiotherapy benefits with your insurer before your first visit.

What your plan may cover
Most extended health plans include categories for all four of the registered disciplines at the clinic.
Acupuncture
Treatment by a Registered Acupuncturist (R.Ac), including Traditional Chinese Medicine sessions.
Registered massage therapy
Treatment by a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT).
Physiotherapy
Assessment and treatment by a Registered Physiotherapist.
Counselling and social work services
Sessions with a Registered Social Worker (RSW); many plans cover counselling under this category.
Every plan is different: check your individual plan for coverage limits and per-visit maximums before your appointment.
Official receipts, every visit
We issue an official receipt for every paid visit. Receipts include your practitioner's registration number (R.Ac, RMT, Registered Physiotherapist, or RSW), so your extended health plan has everything it needs to process your claim.
A note on cosmetic acupuncture
Cosmetic acupuncture is typically not covered by extended health plans and is subject to GST, so plan for it as a self-paid service. All other acupuncture sessions fall under the standard acupuncture category on most plans.
