Do
We Accept Medicare?
Yes,
we are a Medicare provider. Medicare will
cover 80%. The remaining 20% is the patient's
responsibility, unless you have current secondary/supplemental
insurance. As a courtesy to you, we will also
bill your secondary/supplemental insurance.
Are
We a Medicaid Provider?
No,
we are not.
Do
We Accept Private Insurance?
We
do accept most health insurance plans. Being
a participating provider does not guarantee
payment for services, and patients will be
responsible for charges applied to a deductible,
co-insurance, co-pay or any non-covered charges.
Do
I Need a Referral/Prescription From My Doctor?
All
MEDICARE patients require a referral from
their physician. Each referral/prescription
is valid for 30 days from the date of prescription.
Not
all PRIVATE INSURANCE companies require a
prescription. It is important to remember
that all health plans are different and to
ensure that you receive coverage according
to your plan, you need to call your insurance
company to verify. Our staff will also call
to verify benefit coverage for you as a courtesy
but we are not responsible if they provide
us with incorrect information.
Florida
is a state with DIRECT ACCESS, meaning you
can be evaluated and treated by a licensed
Physical Therapist for up to 21 days without
a physician's referral/prescription. However,
MEDICARE does not cover direct access PT,
and some PRIVATE INSURANCE payors may also
require a referral/prescription.
How
Do I Check if My Therapist is Properly Licensed
in the State of Florida?
Go
to the website, My Florida.com and search
for the therapist by first/last name and profession.

What
do I need to bring with me on the first visit?
For
the initial evaluation, you will need to bring
your insurance card, drivers license, and
list of medications, if applicable. You may
download your patient intake forms from our
