Private Healthcare Insurance Cover
Seamless Private Healthcare Insurance Cover at Back Care Chiropractic, Petts Wood
Making use of your private healthcare insurance is a straightforward way to access chiropractic and physiotherapy treatment while getting the most from your cover. At Back Care Chiropractic & Physiotherapy Clinic, we regularly treat patients insured by:
AXA – Vitality – Cigna – WPA – Aviva – Healix
Depending on the terms of your policy, your insurer may contribute towards, or fully cover, the cost of eligible treatment.
Since every policy differs, we recommend confirming your level of cover, any treatment limits and authorisation requirements directly with your insurer before beginning care. Simply get in touch with us and we’ll provide you with your treating practitioner’s insurance provider number.
Please note that direct billing to insurance providers isn’t something we currently offer. If your insurer requires us to invoice them directly, we may be unable to process your treatment under that arrangement. Most private health insurance policies do allow you to pay the clinic yourself and claim reimbursement afterwards, though terms vary between insurers. We’d recommend confirming your policy’s billing and reimbursement process with your insurer ahead of booking.
Insurance Cover Explained: Back Care Chiropractic, Petts Wood
Private Healthcare Insurance
Pay Directly, Claim Back: You pay for your treatment directly with Back Care Chiropractic in Petts Wood, then submit your claim to your health insurer for reimbursement in line with your individual policy.
Pre-Authorisation Guidance: Before booking your appointment, get in touch with us and we’ll provide the practitioner and insurance details you’ll need. You can then contact your insurer to arrange any required pre-authorisation, referral or claim reference number ahead of your visit, and confirm they’ll reimburse you directly, as our clinics don’t offer direct billing to insurance companies.
Insurance-Ready, Same-Day Invoices: We issue your itemised invoice on the same day as your appointment, so there’s no delay in submitting your claim. Each invoice includes the relevant treatment and practitioner details, along with your insurance authorisation or reference number where one has been provided. This keeps the reimbursement process as smooth as possible and helps minimise delays when claiming back your treatment costs.

Step 2: Complete Your Intake
Fill out your online intake ahead of your appointment, including your private healthcare insurance details and any authorisation or reference number, where applicable.
Step 3: Assessment & Treatment
Your practitioner will carry out a thorough clinical assessment and screening, talk through your goals with you, and put together a personalised treatment plan suited to your needs.

You pay the clinic directly following your appointment. We will issue your itemised, insurance-ready invoice on the same day, including your private healthcare insurance reference number where provided, so you can submit your claim promptly and help minimise delays in reimbursement.
“I wasn’t sure what to expect when it came to claiming through Vitality, but it turned out to be refreshingly simple. My invoice was ready on the same day as my appointment, itemised and ready to submit, so there was no chasing paperwork afterwards. On top of that, the treatment itself worked, my pain and mobility both improved noticeably within just a handful of sessions.”
Right from my first visit, everything ran smoothly and professionally. The team was clear about what my insurer would need from me, my invoice landed the moment treatment ended, and the reimbursement process was far easier than I’d anticipated. But what mattered most was how quickly the assessment and treatment together got me back on my feet.”
“I was initially unsure how claiming through WPA would work, but reception made the process very clear. They provided the practitioner details I needed before booking and included my insurance reference on the invoice. I paid the clinic directly, submitted the invoice to WPA and was able to claim back in line with my policy.”
Insurance FAQs
Q. Do I need a GP referral or pre-authorisation before my appointment?
Answer: Many policies allow direct access to chiropractic and physiotherapy without a referral, but some insurers require a GP referral or prior authorisation for reimbursement. We’d recommend checking your policy terms before your appointment to help your claim go through smoothly.
Q. How does insurance reimbursement work if you don’t bill directly?
Answer: You pay for your session upfront at the time of your appointment, and we’ll give you a fully itemised, insurance-compliant receipt straight away. You can then submit this to your insurer or their online portal for reimbursement, in line with your plan’s coverage.
Q. What if I don’t have insurance or prefer to pay for myself?
Answer: We offer straightforward self-pay rates and package options across all our services. Self-pay patients get transparent pricing with no hidden fees, along with full access to our integrated chiropractic, physiotherapy, and rehabilitation care.
Q. What documentation will I receive to submit my claim?
Answer: After each visit, you receive a detailed, itemized receipt containing practitioner registration numbers, diagnostic/procedure codes, service descriptions, and payment confirmation—everything required by standard health insurance portals.
Q. Will my insurance policy cover both chiropractic and physiotherapy treatments?
Answer: Coverage depends on your specific insurance provider and benefit limits. Many plans treat chiropractic and physiotherapy as separate coverage categories, but we advise checking with your insurer directly regarding daily claim limits.
