PRACTICAL QUESTIONS
Know before you go.
We prefer to verify information rather than publish outdated insurance or scheduling promises.
Do I need a prescription or physician referral?
Requirements vary with your insurance, medical needs and therapist service. Call us before the first visit so we can explain what documentation may be needed for your specific situation.
Do you accept my insurance?
Please call our front desk to verify current participation, plan requirements and benefits. Coverage varies even within the same insurer.
What should I wear?
Comfortable clothing that allows access to the area being treated is useful. For hand therapy, bring any orthosis or brace you are using.
Can I come after surgery?
Yes, when therapy is appropriate and the surgeon’s protocol or precautions are available. The start date and movements permitted depend on the procedure.
What if I am not sure whether OT, PT or a CHT is right?
Contact the office and describe the type of problem and your referral, if one was provided. We can help direct your scheduling question to the appropriate service.
