In Arizona, you don't need a referral for physical therapy. But, if you're using insurance, including Medicare, a doctor's referral is required for reimbursement. Medicare accepts referrals from MDs, DOs, PAs, NPs, or podiatrists, but not from naturopaths, dentists, or chiropractors. So, if you're paying out of pocket, no referral is needed.

Arizona has had a shortage of physical therapist for over two decades. We are constantly working to keep wait times as short as we can, and the reason for wait times for PT services as well as other medical services is multifactorial. If you anticipate needing PT, such as after an elective surgery, please allow for as much time as possible for scheduling and we will do our best to accommodate.

Please call our office to make an appointment for an initial evaluation. Additionally, if you need to cancel an appointment please call and leave a message with the staff or on our voicemail. This CANNOT be done by text or online.

A: Backway's Physical Therapy accepts several insurance plans, including Medicare. However, coverage can vary depending on your specific insurance provider and plan. We recommend: • Contacting our clinic directly to confirm whether your insurance is accepted and if we are considered in-network for your benefits. • Contacting your insurance provider to clarify your physical therapy benefits. Please note that while most standard physical therapy services are covered, certain specialty techniques offered at our clinic may not be included in insurance coverage and would require payment out of pocket.

Most insurances, including Medicare, do not cover procedures such as dry needling, visceral manipulation, and craniosacral therapy, among other modalities. There are also specific diagnosis for which Medicare may not cover PT. In order to be covered, your condition must be considered "medically necessary" and related to basic function. Once the course of therapy has begun, the client must be making noticeable progress towards their therapy goals.
