What is a financial barrier rate?
If finances are a struggle at current rates, and/or you do not have benefits, you may qualify for a predetermined lower session rate for a specific amount of time.
How do I find out if I qualify for a financial barrier rate?
Qualification for the financial barrier rate is determined by having a conversation with our admin at 403-487-1607 or email admin@keystohopecounselling.com.
What are your financial barrier rate options?
Consider booking with the practicum students. They provide services at $75.00/hr, and if this amount is still a hinderance, a pay-what-you-can is negotiable for practicum students. Please discuss this option with admin.
What about benefits? How do I know if my benefits cover the practitioner I'd like to see?
For direct billing inquiries, contact our admin at 403-487-1607 or email admin@keystohopecounselling.com and they can assess which practitioners may qualify for your direct billing needs.
Benefits & Coverage
Coverage varies from plan to plan. Typically, plans are broken into two areas: Dental Plans, and Extended Health Benefits. Extended Health plans may cover a wide range of items, but are generally designed to offer coverage for services not included in universal health care like: prescription drugs, out of country medical care, vision care, and Paramedical Services.
Services provided by a Registered or Provisional Psychologist, a Master of Social Work, a CCC, and other mental health therapists are included under Paramedical Services.

- Payment is due at time of session via cash, credit, e-transfer, or direct billing.

- Please discuss these options with admin at 403-487-1607 or admin@keystohopecounselling.com
-
- Benefits coverage can vary. It is recommended that you contact your benefits provider prior to booking.

- If you are looking to use your benefits to cover the cost of your session, Keys to Hope Counselling Services direct bills to Blue Cross, ASEBP, Medi-Vie, Eclaims, & Green Shield.
