Do I need a referral for therapy services from my doctor?

Most patients are referred to therapy by their medical provider. However, many private insurances allow direct access to physical and occupational therapy without a referral from their doctor.

If you’re interested in “direct access,” check with your insurance provider or contact the Rehab Services department for more information. Direct access is ideal for those familiar with their therapy needs and without medical concerns requiring provider evaluation.

Whether referred by a provider or through direct access, our therapists will share your therapy information with your provider unless you request otherwise.

Will my insurance cover therapy services?

Therapy service coverage depends on your insurance plan. Most traditional insurance, Medicare, and Medicaid plans provide therapy coverage, but vary in plan benefits. The Rehab Services department will verify your insurance benefits prior to your first appointment to ensure that you have coverage to avoid any unexpected issues. As a hospital outpatient service, our services do typically apply towards a patient’s annual deductible until met. As a result, we encourage patients to contact their insurance provider to better understand their insurance benefits if they have questions.
