The ICBC Claims and Treatment Process

1 Report your claim to the ICBC

Your first step is to report your claim to the ICBC. They will record the date of your accident and issue you a claim number, which you’ll use throughout the process. An ICBC support and recovery specialist will be assigned to your case.

2 Find a Practitioner

After receiving your claim number, you can book an appointment with a practitioner of your choice. You don’t have to wait for an ICBC recovery specialist before starting your treatment, so you can seek help right away!

3 Initial Assessment and Treatment Planning

When you book your initial treatment at Qi, you’ll be sent an intake form requesting important information regarding your claim. This will streamline the process and ensure the practitioner has everything they need to start treating you right away.

During your initial appointment, your practitioner will evaluate your injuries and develop a customized treatment plan to support your recovery.

4 Continued Treatment Beyond 12 Weeks

Sometimes injuries are severe and recovery can take longer than the pre-authorized sessions. In these cases, our practitioners will submit a treatment plan extension to your recovery specialist outlining further treatments planned and how they will benefit your recovery.

5 Focus on Your Recovery

We’ll claim the bill directly from ICBC, so you can focus on your recovery.

ICBC Direct Billing FAQ’s

  • If the practitioner determines you’ll need additional treatment after your pre-authorized sessions, they’ll submit an extension to ICBC. This will be evaluated and approved by your ICBC support and recovery specialist.

  • ICBC offers standardized treatment fees that often fall below the industry average. In these instances, the difference can be covered by your insurance provider or out of pocket.

  • No, you can only book one therapy type per day. Your treatment schedule will be determined by your practitioner and is based on best practice. For example, you can only book one registered massage therapy treatment per day.

  • Yes. While there is a set limit for the same practitioner-type, there is no restriction on using a combination of pre-authorized treatments. For example, you can receive a massage and acupuncture treatment on the same day.
