Blog by Vancouver Orthotics, Hycroft Medical Building (114-3195 Granville St @ 16th Ave) | July 24th, 2019


If you have extended health coverage through Sun Life Financial, then you may have coverage for your custom orthotic inserts or shoes. If you have been prescribed custom orthotic footwear** (either inserts or shoes) by your physician, podiatrist, chiropodist, or orthopedic surgeon you have come to the right place! Here at Vancouver Orthotics we can assist you in submitting your insurance claim form to Sun Life by ensuring you have all the necessary paperwork. We will make sure you have a full receipt outlining the breakdown of charges, a copy of the biomechanical assessment/gait analysis, details of the digital foot casting technique used, a detailed lab invoice, and written confirmation from our lab indicating that the orthotic was fabricated from raw material. If you have coverage through Sun Life for custom orthotic inserts or shoes, and you have questions, please give us a call today and we’d be happy to help or schedule you for an appointment. 
**Prescription must include a diagnosis (not symptoms such as foot pain) in order to be accepted by Sun Life
