Insurance and Benefits Coverage

Insurance Coverage

Counselling or Psychotherapy Coverage:  

ASSIST works with most benefits and insurance companies. Ensure your coverage includes counselling or psychotherapy with either a Registered Master's Social Worker (MSW) or a Registered Psychotherapist (RP).  If you are unsure, ASSIST can contact your benefits provider to confirm coverage.


Medical and Psychiatric Services: 

Medical and psychiatric services are provided by our service partners and work in a collaborative care model.  Psychiatric consultation requires a referral from a doctor and clinical services are covered under OHIP.  Psychiatric services are only available to active clients receiving and paying for counselling services.

Referral:  

Some insurance companies require a doctor's referral or prescription before they will cover our services.  Check with your provider to confirm their requirements.  ASSIST does not require a referral for counselling services.

Non-Insured Health Benefits for First Nations and Inuit Clients

ASSIST is a recognized provider of Mental Health Services under the Non-Insured Health Benefits for First Nations and Inuit. Clients registered with NIHB in Ontario and who have a valid ID number may be fully covered for individual, couple, or group counselling services. Contact us at (705) 716-0749 or click the link below to book an appointment. 


Student Benefits

Counselling and Psychotherapy are covered under many student health benefit plans.  If you are a full-time student, a graduate student or an international student, you could be covered for our services.  Check with your student benefit plans to see if social work or psychological services are included in your plan.
