This rule allows patient like you who are in pain to have immediate access to physical therapists. We will help treat the cause of your pain and eliminate that cause. This saves time and money. You no longer have to go to your primary physician, pay the copay, and wait for the prescription to see the Orthopedic doctor. All to just repeat the process so the orthopedic doctor writes the prescription to physical therapy.
Avoiding these steps gets you better faster and costs a lot less!
