WCB Alberta C352: Chiro Progress/Discharge Report
Chiropractors treating a worker on a WCB-Alberta claim use this one-page report twice: as a progress report at the end of the third week of treatment and as a discharge report when care ends. It updates symptoms, objective findings, any change in diagnosis, the treatment plan and return-to-work status, and it is where a chiropractor asks to extend treatment.
Who completes it
The treating chiropractor completes and signs the whole report, including the job-requirements grid and estimated return-to-work date; the form also records who confirmed the job requirements.
Submitting and payment
- How to submit it
- Contracted chiropractors submit it through myWCB, and non-authorized chiropractors fax or mail the PDF to WCB-Alberta. The progress report is due at the end of week 3 and the discharge report within 2 business days of discharge.
- Who pays
- WCB-Alberta pays progress and discharge reports as fee code RCH02 under the 2025 to 2028 chiropractic fee schedule, billed on the date the report is completed.
Good to know
- To ask for more treatment, answer yes to the extension question and give the number of additional weeks of therapy needed beyond the current authorized time frame.
- The online Chiropractor Finalize Treatment Report (C704) can discharge a worker when there is nothing new to report, but unlike a full C352 discharge report it is not payable.
- The report can request WCB-assisted services: contact with the case manager, contact with a WCB chiropractic consultant, or referral to a return-to-work provider.
- Reasons a patient cannot work can be ticked directly on the form: hospitalized, self-reported pain, or opioid and medication side effects, with space for other restrictions.

Frequently asked questions
When is the C352 progress report due?
At the end of the third week of treatment, according to WCB-Alberta's Chiropractic Contract Reference and Online Reporting Guide for 2025 to 2028. The same form serves as the discharge report, due within 2 business days of discharge. The first report, C056, is due within 2 business days of the initial assessment.
Can I discharge a worker without a full C352?
Contracted chiropractors can use the online Chiropractor Finalize Treatment Report (C704) when the worker needs to be discharged and there is no new information about progress or status. WCB-Alberta does not pay for C704, so a complete discharge report on C352 is the payable option.
What does C352 ask about the diagnosis?
It asks for current symptoms and objective findings, whether the diagnosis has changed, up to three ICD-9 diagnostic codes, and the part of body, side of body and nature of injury. When reporting online through myWCB, the previous diagnosis and codes may pre-populate from earlier reports.
