Advocacy for Change in the Language of Paramedical Benefits and Billing Codes

June 18, 2025

In June, the CAND team attended the CHLIA Claims and Anti-Fraud Conference in Calgary, and shared insights into the expertise and education of NDs. Our messaging focused on asking benefit providers to change coverage language in paramedical benefits to list “Naturopathic Doctors” and not simply use the term “Naturopath”. We also asked for enhancements to coverage billing options to better align with practice.
