RESOURCES
-
How long will it take for my evaluation?First appointments (evaluations) typically take between 60-90 minutes, and follow-up treatments range from 30-60 minutes, depending upon the diagnosis. Your therapist will discuss with you the expectations for your recovery, and will help you to set realistic goals and timelines to complete your recovery.
-
What forms of payment or insurance do you accept?Central Physical Rehabilitation is an in-network provider for most managed health care plans. Please contact us to confirm that we accept your insurance. All out of pocket expenses, including copays, may be paid with cash, check or a major credit card.
-
Do you need my medical history information?Yes. Before your appointment, please print and complete our Online Patient Information Forms. This will expedite your visit and allow our staff to determine if there are any pre-existing conditions that may prevent you from being able to receive rehabilitation from Northwest Physical Therapy and Sports Rehab.
-
What should I wear to my therapy session?It is recommended that you wear loose fitting clothing and comfortable shoes. Additionally, please bring any braces, splints, or similar equipment that you are using. Please avoid wearing jeans, tight fitting clothes, skirts, dresses, low-cut or revealing clothing.
-
What do I need to bring to my therapy session?On your first day of therapy, remember to bring a photo ID, your insurance information, any paper referrals, insurance pre-authorization, prescriptions, and any copies of diagnostic tests or procedures.
-
Does my Physical Therapist communicate with my doctor?Yes. Following an initial evaluation, your therapist will fax a copy of the evaluation to the referring physician. They also fax all pertinent progress notes and discharge summaries throughout the course of therapy. If necessary, the therapist will call your physician with any questions regarding progress or diagnosis. It is expected that a patient inform the physical therapist of all upcoming doctor appointments.
