No Referral? No Problem = DIRECT ACCESS:
Allowing individuals to make their own health-care decisions is sound policy.
People who would benefit from PT treatment face unnecessary delays as a result of direct access restrictions, whichultimately, lead to higher costs, lower functional outcomes, and frustration for patients seeking physical therapy.The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) and its statewide affiliates were successful in amending legislation in several states, including New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, to provide patients with immediate access to physical therapy treatments.As a result of providing direct access for Physical Therapists within these states, New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania are now regarded as top choices when it comes to selecting a healthcare provider to address musculoskeletal and movement problems in all patient demographics.
Benefits of Direct Access:
- Direct-access therapy services result in fewer visits to general practitioners and hospital admissions when compared to treatments obtained through physician referrals.
- You can save time on the phone or in a waiting area by scheduling an appointment directly with Akshar Physical Therapy at one of our four conveniently located clinics or for the Home Therapy Services.
- If you see a our therapists directly, they can determine if the therapy is the best approach for your health condition, and if not, they can refer you to another medical professional.

Cash Options:
No insurance means no worries, which means cash options.
- If you do not have insurance coverage, we can provide cash options to treat your health issues. The majority of healthcare insurance do not cover the full cost of a physical therapy visit.
- If cash-based physical therapy rates appear to be excessive, keep in mind that even with health insurance, many patients must pay copays and deductibles of $50 or More per therapy visit.
- So, whether you use your insurance benefits or not, you will usually have to pay for physical therapy out of pocket.
