OHIP Versus Curezone Physiotherapy

Government-funded physiotherapy clinics provide assessment and treatment services, including rehabilitation following an injury or hospital stay. Eligibility criteria are usually limited and with a valid Ontario health card you can receive government-funded physiotherapy if you are:

– 65 years or older (or)19 years or under

– any age after an overnight hospital stay or an outpatient/day surgery procedure (within the last 12 months) for a condition requiring physiotherapy

– a recipient of the Ontario Works or the Ontario Disability Support Program (any age, OHIP card not required)

Care through Government-funded services including OHIP

Government-funded services can be classified by location of service:

1. out-patient physiotherapy clinic

2. assessment and treatment of flare-ups or worsening symptoms of chronic conditions. Or could be a recent illness, injury or accident, and, post-operative rehabilitation

3. If you have recently had surgery for a total hip, knee or shoulder arthroplasty (hip, knee or shoulder replacement), your hospital will connect you with physiotherapy clinics that are participating with them in bundled care.

Bundled care is of a provincial funding model. This model is available with the goal of promoting greater integration in health care delivery, drive high-quality, efficient care and improve patient outcomes and experience. Therefore, you will be able to access no cost physiotherapy through these providers that are bundled with your surgeon’s hospital.

However, OHIP funded Physiotherapy is not unlimited. This is due to their limited funding and most clinics cover only 5- 6 sessions. Therefore, you may not be able to achieve optimal or full recovery. Wait-lists for OHIP clinics can be long and range from 6-8 months depending on the area you live in. In addition, most of the post-operative care after hip or knee replacement is done in a group setting due to time constraints.
