WPA podiatry FAQs

  • What happens if WPA does not cover the full cost?

    You remain responsible for any excess, shortfall, unpaid balance or treatment not covered by your policy.

  • Does WPA cover podiatry?

    WPA may cover podiatry depending on your policy, symptoms, referral requirements, practitioner recognition, appointment type and authorisation. Please check directly with WPA before booking.

  • Is WPA chiropody the same as WPA podiatry?

    People often use chiropody and podiatry to describe foot care. If your policy mentions WPA chiropody, check with WPA whether your podiatry appointment, practitioner and treatment type are covered.

  • How do I check my WPA podiatry cover?

    Use the WPA Health app or contact WPA before booking. Ask whether your appointment is covered, whether you need authorisation and whether the practitioner and clinic location are recognised.

  • Can I book without checking WPA first?

    You can book privately, but if you want to use insurance, it is best to check your cover before attending. This helps reduce the risk of unexpected costs.

  • How do I claim WPA podiatry?

    Use the WPA Health app or contact WPA before your appointment. WPA can confirm whether your claim is approved, whether you need a referral and what details you need to bring.

  • Will WPA cover orthoses?

    Orthoses are not automatically covered by every policy. Please ask WPA whether assessment, prescription, fitting, manufacture and follow-up are included or need separate authorisation.

    Cover depends on your policy and the treatment type. Please check whether verruca treatment, nail surgery or other procedures need separate approval before booking.

  • Can Evolution Podiatry invoice WPA directly?

    Direct billing may be possible where approved arrangements are in place. If direct billing is not available, you may need to pay and reclaim from WPA.
