| What are reasonable and customary fees? | What are the impacts on claims? | Where to find the updated reasonable and customary fees list? | ||
| The cost for a paramedical service varies from one provider to another. Reasonable and customary fees correspond to the maximum acceptable amounts established for certain services, according to their average cost in any given region. | A limit applies to a claim for a paramedical service if the provider charges more than the reasonable and customary fee. The plan member must pay the difference. According to plan specifications, limits are also subject to any deductibles and reimbursement percentages. | You can find our reasonable and customary fees list for 2021 in My Client Space, under Guides and Resources, in the left-hand menu. |
