Direct Access
Direct Access:
No Physician Referral Required
With our integrated and collaborative approach to care, our goal is to provide you with a seamless and positive experience.
In the case where we feel further medical evaluation is in your best interests before beginning any formal therapy, we may refer you to your family physician, our chiropractors, or an outside specialist for further evaluation.
Physical Therapy Simplified
Direct Access allows our physical therapists to perform a comprehensive evaluation, as well as treat you without a physician referral (up to 30 days.) Our Billing Department will verify that your insurance will cover this service, prior to your appointment.
What Does This Mean For You?
- Timely access and treatment for a speedy recovery.
- Reduction in financial costs.
- Gives you the ability to choose where you would like to receive physical therapy.
Our physical therapists will provide your primary doctor with their initial evaluation findings and proposed treatment plan, as well as regular progress reports. Upon physician review, if your condition prompts care past 30 days, your physician may provide a referral to continue care after the initial 30 days is up.
