If you’ve ever put off booking an appointment because you didn’t want to deal with insurance paperwork, you’re not alone. At Chinook Chiropractic, Physiotherapy & Massage, we understand that convenience matters. That’s why we offer direct billing for chiropractic, physiotherapy, and massage appointments right here in SW Calgary.

Whether you are a working professional, busy parent, or just attempting to schedule your care into a hectic routine, direct billing simplifies it so you can focus on your health — not paperwork.

A patient hands an insurance card to a clinic receptionist — symbolizing easy, stress-free direct billing for chiropractic and physio care.

What is Direct Billing?

Direct billing allows your clinic to bill your insurance claim on your behalf. Instead of paying in advance and awaiting reimbursement, your practitioner is billed directly and you only pay the balance (if any).
