Although VOX Mental Health does not do direct billing, or submit claims on your behalf, services offered are generally covered by private health insurance benefit packages. However, coverage and benefits for traditional therapy and therapy services change from one health insurance company to another and from plan to plan. We recommend that you consult with your health benefits provider to ensure that your sessions are covered. Please keep in mind that all of our practitioners are Registered Social Workers (RSW) with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW) who hold a Master of Social Work degree (MSW).
Note: As of September 26, 2012, counselling services provided by Registered Social Workers (RSWs) can be claimed as a medical expense tax deduction when you file your income tax return. In other words, Registered Social Workers are now authorized “medical practitioners” for the purpose of claiming medical expenses.
