WAKEFIELD, Mass. - BostonChron -- In the past, in order to get physical therapy, people were required to see a physician and obtain a prescription or a referral in advance. That is no longer the case; we have Direct Access! Over the past few years, all 50 states have adopted direct access in some way, and in accordance with Massachusetts law, direct access allows people to see a licensed physical therapist without a doctor's prescription or referral.

Direct Access to physical therapy helps remove barriers to care. It helps make PT more convenient and accessible. It ensures that you receive the highest quality of care available, that you are able to access that care quickly, and that it's the right care for you. It eliminates the need for an additional doctor's appointment, can save you time and money and can lead to higher satisfaction and better outcomes. You can start your recovery today.

We understand that medical billing can be challenging, but if you are already a member of a health insurance plan, and are already paying a monthly premium, you should use it. The cost of a copayment is often lower than the out-of-pocket costs of cash services. At HDPT, we have a dedicated insurance and billing staff that can fully help you with all of it. They are available to assist you with verifying your insurance coverage, eligibility and benefits, will support you with any steps that you do have to take, and will ensure that you have a smooth and hassle-free PT experience.
