Your next stop on your road trip through the IBEW Local 353 Benefit Plan is paramedical practitioners. You might not know off-the-top what paramedical is – but if you’ve ever needed physio, or seen a registered massage therapist, then you’ve used a paramedical service. Paramedical practitioners support medical care by treating a range of issues, and fall outside of a typical medical doctor’s practice. The annual maximum is $2,500 for all paramedical practitioners combined, per insured person
Here is the list of eligible practitioners:
• Acupuncture • Audiologist • Chiropractor (includes x-rays) • Christian Science Practitioner • Dietician • Homeopath • Naturopath • Osteopath • Physiotherapist • Podiatrist/Chiropodist • Registered Kinesiologist/Athletic Therapist • Registered Massage Therapist • Registered Occupational Therapist • Speech Therapist
