Québec's public automobile insurance plan provides for financial compensation for various types of private health care you may receive as a result of a traffic accident, such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy, dentistry or other treatments.
If you are a victim of a traffic accident, here are the private health care treatments for which you may apply for financial compensation.
The plan does not cover medical consultations, radiological examinations or surgery, since they are already covered by Québec's public health care plan.
Every year, the SAAQ pays an amount to the consolidated fund of Québec that represents the annual cost of services rendered to traffic accident victims.
