WSIB, Disability & MVA

If you have been injured at work or in a motor vehicle accident we can help ensure that you receive the care you need!
In Canada, the Workers Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) is a government organization that provides assistance to workers who become injured or ill while on the job. The WSIB provides disability benefits, medical aid, and compensation for lost wages. It also provides assistance to victims of motor vehicle accidents (MVA). Premiere Health Group in Toronto works with these organizations for your healthcare. Learn more below, and contact us today!

Motor Vehicle Accidents (MVA)

It can be overwhelming and scary to be in a motor vehicle accident. To help to decrease some of the confusion on the paperwork side, below are some steps you can take if injured in a car accident.

In Ontario, an MVA is defined as an accident involving a motor vehicle that has caused death or injury to a person. A motor vehicle is any vehicle that is driven or propelled on a highway by any means, including a motor vehicle, trailer, or another similar device.

    In addition to the standard clinic forms, there is additional paperwork that needs to be processed when you are visiting a chiropractor for therapy as a result of a car accident. Your insurer will forward forms to you that are required to be filled out by you. In addition they will provide Treatment Plan forms for you to give to your chiropractor. We will submit the Treatment Plan to your insurer directly.

    If your treatment plan is approved by your insurer, then the cost for therapy is billed directly to the auto insurer. However, if you have extended health care, the FSCO guidelines require that your extended health care insurance is billed first prior to billing your auto insurance. The goal of treatment after a car accident is to return you to your pre-accident status.

Workplace Safety Insurance Board (WSIB)

Workplace injuries can be highly debilitating and influence your productivity at work and at home. The WSIB is here to help make sure you’re safe from harm at work. If you are ever injured or become ill because of your job, they are here to give you the care and support you’re entitled to under Ontario’s workplace safety and insurance system. The WSIB offers a range of benefits to workers and their families, including the cost of health care related to workplace injury and illness.
