INSURANCE FAQ's
Many medical insurance caps and deductibles reset at the beginning of the calendar year. For example, the new Medicare Part B 'caps' or limits for 2010 are $1860 (for outpatient physical therapy and speech pathology combined) and $1860 (for outpatient occupational therapy). However, you may qualify for an exception to therapy limits if deemed medically necessary.
Each insurance company differs when it comes to plans and coverage for services, including physical and occupational therapy. It's a good idea to contact your insurance company or companies at the beginning of each year so you can be aware of any changes or updates in your medical coverage. And remember, the friendly staff at ProRehab is always here to help. For a list of Frequently Asked Questions, please click here!
