FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

We are out of network with all insurance except for Medicare Part B. This enables us to offer you highly personalized 1:1 care free from insurance limitations. Upon request, we can provide receipts for you to submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement. Additionally, we do accept HSA and FSA cards for payment. Our patient-centered approach often results in quicker recovery, significantly fewer sessions required, and long-term cost savings.

The evaluation is $150 and is around 60 minutes long. Follow-Ups are based on time: $125 for 60 minutes $62.50 for 30 minutes Packages of 4 and 8 sessions are available at a slightly discounted rate.

We recommend you call your insurance and ask them "What are my Out-of-Network Physical Therapy Benefits." You should find out if you have a deductible to meet first, and in rare cases, if authorization is needed, which we can obtain for you if it is required. In some instances, your IN and OUT of network deductibles can cross accumulate, meaning credit for one goes towards both which can help you meet your deductible and get reimbursed sooner. From here, the reimbursement rate of your insurance for an out-of-network physical therapy session may or may not be equal to what we charge. It is easy to upload and submit the receipts to your insurance, and within a week or two you should find out if they reimbursed you.

A prescription is only necessary if you have Medicare. Otherwise, New Jersey has direct access laws allowing patients to see a physical therapist without a doctor's referral or imaging. Physical Therapists are specially trained to diagnose and treat musculoskeletal conditions and will refer you back to a physician if needed at any point during the rehab process. However, this often not needed and saves you time.

In most physical therapy clinics, therapists spend 15 minutes or less with you, often while overseeing multiple other patients and then pass you off to an aide or student to go through exercises. The frequency of visits is typically 2-3 times per week for several months, and access to weights and equipment may be limited. At Stronger Performance Physical Therapy, you work one-on-one with Dr. Sarah for a full hour, with a customizable plan tailored to your needs. During your session, you are her only patient and sole focus. Treatment usually includes manual therapy to improve flexibility, correct alignment, and relieve pain. She guides you through every exercise, ensuring you target the right area and understand how each exercise will help you. We have a fully equipped gym with plenty of weights and equipment. You often need fewer sessions and less frequently. You also have access to Dr. Sarah via phone or email even between your sessions. Patients report significantly greater satisfaction with this level of care, and so does Dr. Sarah!
