Cost of Future Care Planning in Alberta & British Columbia
At Leading Edge Physiotherapy, we understand that planning for the future after a serious injury or chronic health condition requires clarity, compassion, and clinical precision. That’s why we offer comprehensive Cost of Future Care Evaluations (Life Care Planning) in Edmonton, St. Albert, and now expanding into Kelowna and British Columbia.
What Is a Cost of Future Care Evaluation?
A Cost of Future Care Evaluation—also known as a Life Care Plan—is a structured, evidence-based report that outlines the current and future needs of individuals who have experienced:
- Catastrophic injuries
- Chronic health conditions
- Long-term disability
This report includes detailed cost projections and care recommendations, helping insurers, legal professionals, and families make informed decisions about rehabilitation, support services, and financial planning.
What’s Included in a Life Care Plan?
Our evaluations are built on published standards of practice and include:
- Review of medical documentation to assess prognosis
- Interviews with the client and significant others
- Consultations with treatment providers
- Functional testing and ADL (Activities of Daily Living) assessments
- Research into local and regional costs for recommended services
The final report provides:
- A clear summary of the client’s ability to participate in personal, home, and community activities
- A breakdown of required services and supports
- Detailed cost charts for future care needs
Categories Assessed May Include:
- Medical care and specialist services
- Medications and medical supplies
- Rehabilitation and health care services
- Assistive equipment and technology
- Health maintenance and wellness programs
- Transportation and mobility support
- Architectural modifications for accessibility
- Home care and personal support services
Combine with Functional Capacity Evaluation (FCE)
For efficiency and cost-effectiveness, our Life Care Planning can be paired with a Functional Capacity Evaluation. This dual assessment provides a deeper understanding of the client’s physical abilities and limitations, enhancing the accuracy and relevance of the final report.
