Perhaps using a RUN directive to "cat /path/to/my/file" ?

I haven't done this myself, I just know it's an option.

     A  RUN-type reminder also passes the body through the substitution fil‐
     ter, but then executes the result as  a  system  command.   A  CAL-type
     reminder  is  used  only to place entries in the calendar produced when
     Remind is run with the -c, -s or -p options.
