The Enhanced Care Model and Recovery Network​

ICBC Treatment Guide

Since the introduction of ICBC’s Enhanced Care Model in May 2021, recovery from car accidents has become easier and more accessible for all British Columbians. This new model ensures that everyone can access the rehabilitation services they need without lengthy legal battles.

What Is ICBC's Enhanced Care Model?​

ICBC’s Enhanced Care Model is designed to make medical care and rehabilitation services more accessible for anyone injured in a motor vehicle accident, regardless of fault. This model covers all necessary treatments, including Physiotherapy, Kinesiology, and Massage Therapy, at no upfront cost to the patient. It also streamlines the claims process, making it easier and faster for individuals to get the care they need. At Volt Health, we’re fully equipped to provide these services in Abbotsford and extend Kinesiology and Physiotherapy services into the Surrey area to reach more people in need of recovery assistance. And now, as a proud member of ICBC's Recovery Network, we can deliver treatment right after your accident and direct bill the same day!
