TELEHEALTH
An Alternative or Supplement
to In-Person Care
We are pleased to offer video telehealth as an alternative or supplement to in-person care. Telehealth sessions are available to new and existing patients.
Telehealth sessions take place over a HIPAA compliant secure video interface and allow for many of the treatments that you might receive in our office.
Some examples include:
In addition, having a view of your home environment provides your therapist a unique opportunity to evaluate ergonomic and environmental factors that may be impacting your symptoms.
Examples of home activities, positions, and areas that may benefit from our input:
For new patients, telehealth evaluations include thorough history taking, movement assessment, and personalized treatment plans. As always, therapy sessions are one-on-one and private. Telehealth sessions last 45-55 minutes and can be used in place of, or as a supplement to in-person treatment. Please note, that while telehealth is fully compliant with healthcare laws and regulations, health insurance companies may not reimburse at the same rate as they do for in-person visits. Under current law, your therapist must be licensed in the state where you are located during the telehealth session. All of our physical therapists are licensed in the District of Columbia. We also have therapists licensed in Maryland, Virginia, and Pennsylvania. If you do not see your state listed or have questions about seeing a particular therapist for telehealth, please get in touch so we can determine how best to accommodate you.
