Direct Access- Treatment from a Physical Therapist Without a Prescription
Direct access is a law that allows patients to seek treatment from a physical therapist without a prescription or referral from a physician, dentist, podiatrist or nurse practitioner.
Direct access gets you treatment sooner! If you strained your low back lifting heavy boxes, sprained your ankle playing soccer or just want a tune-up for a chronic neck problem, you can come see us right away! You do not have to wait to get an appointment with your doctor which could take weeks, missing out on treatment that can decrease your pain, improve your mobility and get you back doing what you want to do.
Over 90% of commercial insurances will cover direct access for Physical Therapy. Before your first visit, Specialized Physical Therapy will perform an insurance verification and confirm that you are covered under direct access. If your plan requires a PT referral, that will be clearly communicated to you prior to your initial visit.
