Telehealth

Telehealth at New Motion Physical Therapy

New Motion Physical Therapy is open for visits in the clinic. However, we recognize that the situation with COVID-19 is still uncertain and ever-changing. We continue to offer telehealth for those of you who are unable to attend an in-clinic appointment. Telehealth allows you to interact one-on-one with a physical therapist from the comfort and safety of your home. It can be used to:

1. Continue your therapy plan of care with your physical therapist.

2. Receive an examination for a new injury to determine if in-clinic visits, telehealth, or referral to another provider is warranted.

3. Monitor an existing condition periodically.

Here are some reasons why you should consider a telehealth physical therapy visit:

1. Telehealth physical therapy is effective. While therapists will be unable to perform hands-on tests and treatment, there is still a lot that can be accomplished. Therapists can discuss your condition and goals, perform modified tests and measures, observe your movement, establish and guide an individualized exercise program, provide education, and answer your questions.

2. The technology is simple! The platforms we use do not require registration. Accessing your appointment simply requires you to open your email and click a link at the scheduled time. You will need a computer or device with video and microphone and a good internet connection. That’s it!

3. Telehealth visits are private and HIPAA compliant.

4. Telehealth is accepted by most insurance plans. This includes Medicare. Our staff is continually checking for new updates and information regarding telehealth and insurance reimbursement. It is always a good idea to call your insurance provider and verify your benefits.

The bottom line is we are here to support you. You can continue to get great care while staying safe. Call New Motion Physical Therapy today to schedule, at 206-842-2428.
