FAQ’s

Is a physician’s referral required?

• In the state of Illinois, a physician’s prescription for physical therapy is required.  This may be faxed to (773) 755-9216.

How frequently will I need physical therapy?

• Many chronic conditions are treated most efficiently with weekly one-hour long sessions.  Acute injuries may require just a few visits, whereas long-standing conditions may require treatment over a longer period of time with a decreasing frequency of visits as you become more independent with managing your recovery.

Is physical therapy covered by insurance?

• Most insurance plans cover physical therapy.  Please call your insurance company and inquire about your benefits.  You will want to know what your deductible, co-pay or co-insurance is, as well as any limits to your benefits.  We do not pre-screen your benefits and you will be responsible for any outstanding balances.

Are you a member of BCBS PPO?

• We are in-network with BCBS PPO.  For clients with coverage other than BCBS PPO, we ask that you pay at the time of service.  We will submit the claim electronically for you and you will be reimbursed directly by your insurance company.  Please call us to discuss Medicare policies.

What is your cancellation/ “no show” policy?

• We are unable to fill open appointments with less than 24 hours notice and you will be responsible for a cancellation fee.  We will be unable to reschedule you after three of these instances.

What forms of payment do you accept?

• We accept check, cash, Visa, and Mastercard.
