Do you have Mobile Medicare Physical Therapy Services?
As of October 2022, we have decided to shift out of mobile Physical Therapy as there is more of a need inside the clinic. However, if the demands for mobile Physical Therapy should increase, we will announce the startup of these services at that time. We suggest joining the wait list for mobile services so that when we restart these services you can be considered.

What is the No Suprise Act?
The No Suprise Act is a federal law that took effect on January 1, 2022, that protects consumers from most instances of “surprise” balance billing . The federal law applies to individual, small group, and large group fully insured markets and self-insured group plans including grandfathered plans. The legislation caps patient cost-sharing for out-of-network items and services at in-network levels and requires providers to work with insurers and health plans to negotiate remaining bills.
