  1. Important Tips in Choosing the Right Physical Therapy Provider

  2. Choose Your Own Physical Therapy • Don’t trust your health to just anyone. Remember that you have the right to choose your own physical therapy provider. • While your physician may recommend a particular physical therapist or clinic, you still have the final say where to receive your treatment from. • This is true still even if you need a physician’s referral.

  3. Therapy Is Vital • Do your research early on since the therapy is vital for a speedy recovery after a surgery or an injury. • You cannot afford to wait too long just to be able to set an appointment with the physical therapist. • Also, going to the wrong person can only cause you more harm than good.

  4. Here are some important tips to consider when choosing the right physical therapy provider:

  5. Consider Your Needs • Not all physical therapists and clinics are equal. • Make sure that the practice you choose is appropriate for your needs. • Find out if the therapist specializes in care that addresses your condition. • Also, inquire about the facilities they have to ensure that everything you’ll need for the therapy is available and that you can be provided adequate care.

  6. Inquire About Your Insurance • Don’t postpone asking this question. • Otherwise, you may find yourself settling fees out-of-pocket. Call the facility and and ask if the therapist accepts your insurance. • Get in touch as well with your insurance company so you can better understand benefits you’re eligible for. • This way, you’d have an idea early on of the expenses that you’ll need to take care of, yourself.

  7. Double-Check The Location • Convenience is a crucial factor when choosing the right physical therapy provider or clinic. • Chances are, you’ll be meeting your therapist every week for an extended period of time. • You need to know that the clinic location is easily accessible either from work or home.

  8. Look Into Cancellation Policy • Emergencies happen and you may have to miss or be late for your appointment. • Make sure that you fully understand the cancellation policy as some clinics charge a fee for no-show. • Verify how much time does the clinic require for a cancellation notice so you will not have to be charged for the session.

  9. Finally, Make Sure That The Therapist Is Licensed • The physical therapist attending to your needs should be licensed. • The physical therapy assistant should as well be supervised by a licensed physical therapist. • Make it a point to inquire as well whether you will be receiving care from a single person throughout the program. • Consistency of care can contribute to your development.

  10. Check These Out! • Choosing the right physical therapy provider or clinic requires some work but if it’s for your health, it’s definitely all worth the trouble early on than regret later. • By applying these tips you are on your way to choosing the right physical therapist.   • Brought to you by Franklin Rehabilitation, one of the best physical rehabilitation provider out there. • Visit site: http://www.franklinrehab.com for more details.
