Perspective Physical Therapy and Performance is not a participating provider with any insurance companies. Why is that? The answer is quite simple - we would not be able to provide the highly individualized, one-on-one care that we do at the rates insurance companies currently reimburse for physical therapy services. We see this as a great opportunity for you which we explain below!

This depends on the insurance you have but the answer is yes. Clients seen for physical therapy can send in self-claims to their insurance. You should be able to print claim forms off your insurance company’s website, and send it in with the needed receipts and treatment codes that will be provided upon request at the clinic. The amount of reimbursement or payment toward your deductible is completely dependent on your insurance plan. If you are planning to submit for reimbursement you should call your insurance company prior to visiting Perspective Physical Therapy and Performance. Ask about reimbursement for out-of-network physical therapy expenses, and make sure there are no other requirements like a pre-authorization before you get started.
-
You do NOT need a prescription or referral from a doctor to come to physical therapy. Under New York State law, a script is required after 10 visits or 30 days, whichever comes first. Because of our model, we will typically hit 30 days before 10 visits. Your therapist will discuss this with you and make sure you have a plan to continue with physical therapy.
-
The No Surprises Act is a recently passed law that entitles self-pay patients (not submitting to insurance) to a good faith estimate of their costs , upon request, prior to treatment. While it is difficult to estimate your total costs prior to seeing you, if you request an estimate prior to your initial evaluation, we will provide one to you.
