Medicare physical therapy
A Medicare part-B Patient consulting a physical therapist

Yes, Medicare Part B can cover physical therapy services provided in an outpatient setting, such as a physical therapy clinic or your home provided by a mobile physical therapist. Medicare Part B generally covers 80% of the cost of medically necessary outpatient physical therapy services, and the patient is responsible for the remaining 20% as a coinsurance.

To qualify for Medicare Part B coverage of physical therapy, the service must be deemed medically necessary to treat a specific medical condition or injury. The physical therapy must also be provided by a licensed physical therapist who accepts Medicare, and the provider must follow Medicare’s coverage guidelines.

Medicare Part B may cover a variety of physical therapy services, including electro therapy, hold/cold modalities for pain management, therapeutic exercises, manual therapy, neuromuscular reeducation, gait training, and more. If you have questions about Medicare Part B coverage for physical therapy services, you can contact Medicare or call us we will try to answer your question or get answers for you.
