Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
"HBOT is widely recognized to treat a variety of conditions"
Ontario HBOT
While Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) gains notoriety in Canada and becomes more of a "main-stream" modality for the treatment of various conditions, in our experience, acceptance of most private health insurance claims and treatment plans (OCF-18) involving HBOT are increasing.*
Please be aware that Ontario HBOT will only be responsible to fill out the following sections of the OCF-18:
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
All other sections and form fields must be completed by the prospective patient, PRIOR to submission to the patient care team.
​
*Ontario HBOT does not guarantee acceptance of any OCF-18 treatment plans submitted to a private insurance company.

The Process
Pre-Qualification call is conducted with various members of the patient care team to ensure the prospective patient is able to safely treat in a hyperbaric chamber.
Partially filled forms and other supporting documents are sent to the patient care team for review and completion.
OCF-18 and any other related forms are completed, signed, and sent through HCAI for Insurance Company approval.
Post-MVA Treatment
Ontario HBOT is registered with HCAI (Health Claims for Auto Insurance)​
HCAI allows our facility to directly submit all related treatment plans directly to your insurance company. Individuals that have been deemed catastrophic or have a lump sum allotted for therapies related to a motor vehicle accident recovery, may treat at Ontario HBOT.​​
​
Please fax all related documents including the OFC-3 Disability Certificate and OCF-18 Treatment plan (personal questions filled out only).
​
Ontario HBOT will work with your personal injury lawyer and any other members of your rehabilitation team in order to ensure a seamless process during this stressful time.
