  3. Pay the difference

Claim context

MSP (premium assistance) massage therapy: what it costs you

MSP premium assistance is the most misunderstood funding on Ailio: people hear that MSP covers massage or physiotherapy and assume the visit is free. It is not. MSP pays a fixed amount toward ten visits a year across all of the supplementary therapies combined, and the rest of the price is yours.

Because your share is the clinic’s price minus a flat contribution, the cheapest listing genuinely is the cheapest visit — which is not true of any other funder on this site. Sorting by price is the right instinct here.
