Do you Accept My insurance

We are out-of-network with insurance as it allows us to focus on giving you the highest quality healthcare without the restrictions often imposed by insurance companies — meaning every session is with a doctor of physical therapy, with individualized attention and treatment plans tailored to your unique goals. With a fitness-forward, results-driven approach, we prioritize your success every step of the way and you're able to extract maximum values from each session. This clarifies the decision making between provider and patient to allow proper care, without the complexity of insurance companies. The patient will pay at time of service with credit card/debit card, check or cash, as well as health saving accounts or flex spending accounts.

Why are you out of network with insurance companies?

When a PT clinic becomes in network with an insurance company, they agree on a rate the insurance company is willing to pay for PT services. As a result, the insurance company has a say in what they will and will not reimburse for and do not take into consideration what is best for the patient and usually this reimbursement rate is low. Due to the low reimbursement rate the clinic then has to increase volume of patients leading to double and even triple booking the same appointment window. This leads to decreased one-on-one time with a licensed Physical Therapist, inconsistency between Physical Therapist you see each visit and working with techs and aides not the licensed Physical Therapist you came to see. This could lead to reduction in quality of care and more visits. By going the cash-based route, it allows you and the provider to interact to choose the best option for you and allows the freedom to create a custom plan.

Why out of network services may be beneficial for you

Most commercial insurance companies do not cover an entire visit with a physical therapist. After your deductible is met patients are often responsible for copays of 50 dollars or more for each visit. This often leads to high out-of-pocket costs. Patients with high deductible plans may be left paying the full amount for the visit anyway. By going cash-based route, it allows you and the provider to interact to choose the best option for you and allows the freedom to create a custom plan. This includes the length of visit, one-on-one time, visit frequency, communication options outside of the visit and choosing a therapist that is right for you without the say of a third-party insurance company. Putting you in the proper position to make decisions and collaborate with the Physical Therapist to set your plan of care and goals.

Can I use my HSA/ FSA?

Yes, you can use your Health Savings Account (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts(FSA). They can be used for most health related services and expenses. Physical Therapy being one of them. It works much like a debit card. These accounts are both tax free when you or your employer contributes to it, reducing your taxable income. Most accounts have a list of covered services on the website.

Can I get reimbursed by my insurance company?

Cash based is considered out of network, if your health insurance offers out of network benefits it is possible your company can reimburse for services. We follow all legal requirements just like any other Physical Therapy practice, completing proper documentation for all visits. Upon request we can provide you with proper paperwork necessary to submit your claim for possible reimbursement to your insurance company. There is no guarantee your insurance provider will reimburse you for services rendered.*Disclaimer: Intent Rehab Performance Physical Therapy is not responsible for reimbursement process and there is no guarantee of reimbursement. The patient is fully responsible to for submitting claims, providing payment in full, up front and at time of service

Do you treat Medicare/Medicaid Patients?

No, outpatient physical therapy services are generally covered under Medicare Part B, provided these services are considered skilled and medically necessary to treat a condition or disease process. Under Medicare regulations, it is illegal to accept cash payment from Medicare patients for services that are considered skilled, medically necessary. Even if it has been prescribed by their physician and proper documentation has been completed.

How long is each visit?

Initial evaluations are longer, about 75 minutes to allow for proper in depth assessment to find the root cause of symptoms. Follow up treatments are 60 minutes.
