HOW DOES HEALTHCASA SELECT PRACTITIONERS?
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER I BOOK MY APPOINTMENTS?
You will receive an email confirmation confirming the date, time, location and practitioner name. You will also be directed to complete a health history form prior to your appointment. You can view all your upcoming appointments in your HealthCasa profile. Reminder emails will be sent to you 48 hours and 2 hours before your appointment.
WHY DO I NEED TO COMPLETE A HEALTH HISTORY FORM?
Our services are regulated under the Regulated Health Professions Act, 1991 (RHPA). A health history form is a legal requirement mandated by the professional colleges of the paramedical services that we offer.. Your health history is a complete picture of your health; this helps your practitioner determine the best treatment plan to suit your individual needs. You will only complete this form once, and your practitioner will update any changes with you at each visit.

HealthCasa accepts payment via Visa, Mastercard and American Express. Payment information is entered as you book your first appointment and for your convenience, is used for future appointments and services. You can update your credit card details at any time, through your HealthCasa account.
WHAT DO I BRING TO THE APPOINTMENT?
DO I HAVE TO LEAVE A TIP?
We do not encourage tipping, however we do believe that the best way to show appreciation is to complete a review and tell your friends, family and colleagues about your positive experience.
