Insurance Information
Learn more about insurance benefits for physical therapy
Our facility provides direct insurance billing for physical therapy services. For successful insurance reimbursement of your physical therapy, you must obtain accurate information from your insurance company by visiting the insurance site or contact our facility to assist you.
We wil bill your secondary insurance after primary insurance payments. Automobile accidents will be billed as primary insurance under the personal injury protection (PIP) coverage of your auto policy.
Technically PIP should cover your medical bills following a car accident for four years or up to the limits of your policy. Once those benefits are exhausted, you may utilize the benefits in a primary health insurance policy.
PIP coverage will cover you and your passengers regardless of who is at fault for the accident. You should not fear using your PIP auto coverage as your insurance company is prohibited from raising insurance rates or canceling coverage unless you are deemed responsible for the accident. So, don't hesitate to use your automobile PIP coverage and get the care you need.
- If your insurance denies or limits payment for therapy services, cash payment plans can be arranged by our office manager.
- If you have further questions, please send email or call us at (305) 867.3925
