FAQs
We are a cash-based physical therapy company in order to avoid restrictions from third parties placed on the way that we provide our care. We are able to treat our patients as a whole rather than only focus on one area at a time (as insurance dictates we must do) with this approach. Patient’s will be treated by a Doctor of Physical Therapy during the entirety of their care and will have the ability to communicate with their therapist between sessions at no additional cost. A superbill can be provided at the patient’s request for the patient to submit to their insurance company for possible reimbursement. It is the responsibility of the patient to understand their insurance coverage for out-of-network providers.
