Osteopathy has Higher Insurance Coverage per Visit



A massage I just received from my little sister, Dr Mateen Pourgol, JD (a lawyer in Ontario, Canada):

“Just called Great West Life to review my benefit coverage plan details and was told chiro sessions are paid to a maximum of $65/hour, massage $95/hr, physio $100/hr, and OSTEOPATHY $110/hr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thought you'd be thrilled to know! :)

Manual osteopathy has now higher insurance limit than most other health care services. This is directly related to the amazing service provided by manual osteopaths that make the profession the number one choice of Canadian patients for chronic musculoskeletal pain management. 

Thanks to all manual osteopaths who make me so proud. 

Dr Shawn Pourgol, MBA, DC, DO, PhD

PS. Mateen regularly sees my student, Nazanin Eshgh, DOMP for osteopathic treatments at her Richmond Hill clinic. She used to have chiropractic & massage treatments regularly. However after the first treatment by Nazanin she now only sees her.
