Fees and coverage

Uninsured fees should be reasonable, reflect the service and ability to pay, and be directly disclosed. Explain charging above the recommended guide where applicable.

Confirm the actual document, insured assessment, public-plan eligibility and any other payer. No patient fee is approved simply by selecting a province.

Physician authority and care

Review the current virtual-care standard and registration requirements, with in-person care available as needed.

Verify the clinician’s current registration, identity, competence and patient-location rules. Plan for examination, follow-up and local urgent care when needed.

Workplace documentation

Do not assume every absence needs a note. Check applicable employment standards, workplace agreements and the specific purpose. Federal workplace rules can apply regardless of province.
