Manion Direct Billing | Athlete's Choice Massage

Manion is a Canadian benefits administration company that manages group health and dental plans for employers. RMT coverage through a Manion-administered plan depends on the extended health package your employer has selected.

Coverage

Manion extended health plans may include coverage for Registered Massage Therapy (RMT). Coverage amounts, annual maximums, and eligible practitioner requirements vary by plan. Your RMT receipt from ACM includes your therapist’s registration number, session date, duration, and fee — everything your provider needs to process the claim.

How it works

ACM submits your claim directly to Manion at the time of your appointment — you pay nothing out of pocket for the covered portion. To process your claim on the day, make sure your insurance information is entered on your intake form before you arrive.

What to have ready

• Your Manion plan number and member ID
• Your relationship to the plan holder (if you’re a dependent)
• Any authorization number your plan requires in advance

We can’t verify your coverage before your appointment — contact Manion directly to confirm your annual limit and remaining balance before you book.

Note: while we process direct billing successfully in the vast majority of cases, it is not guaranteed. If your claim can’t be processed on the day, we’ll provide a receipt for manual submission to your insurer.

FAQ

Does Manion cover massage therapy?

Coverage depends on the plan your employer has set up through Manion. Most group plans that include extended health benefits cover Registered Massage Therapy. Contact your HR department or Manion’s member services to confirm whether RMT is included in your plan and what your annual limit is.

Do I need a doctor’s referral?

Most Manion-administered plans do not require a physician referral for RMT coverage. Confirm with your plan documents or Manion directly before your first appointment.

How do I check my remaining coverage?

Log into your Manion member portal or call the number on the back of your benefits card. ACM can’t access your plan details — only you or your plan administrator can confirm your remaining balance.

What if my direct billing claim is declined?

We’ll let you know right away and process payment directly. We’ll give you an itemized RMT receipt to submit to Manion for manual reimbursement — most plans process these within 5–10 business days.
