Ontario Northern Companion Guide: After a Crash

If your specialist is in Toronto and you live north of Sudbury, one appointment can take a whole day. Two, if the weather turns and you end up staying over.

Those trips belong in your claim. Nobody hands you a form for them, though, so a lot of people end up trying to reconstruct six months of driving from memory and a shoebox of gas receipts. This guide is where you write it down while it's still fresh.

What's inside?

• Where to go first in Ontario, and in what order. Accident benefit travel reimbursement through your own insurer, then Hope Air for the trips no road covers
• A travel log with room for the distance, whether someone had to come with you, and whether you stayed the night
• A costs and receipts page that adds up what getting to your own care has cost you
• A call log for every conversation with your insurer, and a follow-up template so you can put it in writing afterward
• A daily recovery record, and a weekly check on what you can and can't do yet

How does it fit with your other guides?

Your National MVA Recovery Guide is where the day to day lives: symptoms, appointments, calls, costs. Your Ontario MVA Companion Guide carries the deadlines, the forms and the appeal routes for this province. This one covers the travel, which up north tends to be the part that wears people down.
