Do you accept health insurance?

Patients can typically use physical therapy benefits for our services from most insurance companies. We pride ourselves on giving the active healthcare consumer transparency and guidance when navigating the frustrating and complex world of health insurance. Patients tend to find that our process is much simpler and cost effective for patients. Pricing for our services is clearly provided at the beginning of care. In other words, there is no surprise medical bill in the mail 3-6 months after you finish therapy!

Payment for services is provided directly at the time of care. Patients are given itemized receipts and completed paperwork necessary to submit to your insurance company. Simply put it in the mail—(we’ll even give you a stamp!) Reimbursement will vary, depending on individual insurance plans. In the long run, most patients up spending much less with us than a traditional PT practice when you consider your deductible, co-pay, etc.

This clinic structure allows us to spend attentive, 1-on-1 time with clients/patients and will lead to you feeling better faster. Follow up visits are often 60 minutes, dedicated to identifying and treating the cause of pain, rather than just treating symptoms. This helps avoid unnecessary visits and focuses our patient relationships in transparency, fairness, and honesty about the services patients need.

High deductible? We are uniquely suited to keep cost low for patients with a high-deductible health-care plan.

Why doesn't Physio Performance just bill my insurance for me?

Physio believes in high-quality, patient-centered care. Unfortunately, this is not goal of your health insurance company. Insurance companies make it difficult to provide patients with the best care due to their confusing processes, pre-authorization requirements, extensive paperwork, and poor reimbursement to providers.

It is our pleasure to be able to offer a different experience at Physio. The goal is to tailor patient care specifically to each individual. This model eliminates unnecessary medical visits, clarifies the process of getting patients the care they actually need, and leads to a quicker return to sport or pain-free life.

The burden of lower reimbursement falls onto in-network providers, and can cause clinics to make choices such as reducing treatment time, providing less access to continuing education for clinicians, and the use of non-skilled treatment methods such as therapeutic modalities (i.e. ultrasound, etc.) even when their use is not warranted. This causes health-care costs to rise for patients, often without their knowing.

By choosing Physio, patients are choosing to invest in themselves. Save time, money, get the care needed for your particular case. No bill in the mail months after, no hassle, no hidden fees, no loopholes. Plain and simple. 

Do I have to have pain or an injury to receive physical therapy?

No. Physical therapists are experts of the musculoskeletal system of the body. We excel at identifying movement dysfunctions and imbalances that may be causing a current injury or can lead to future injury.  In addition to injury rehabilitation, we provide performance therapy using a combination of hands-on manual therapy techniques and corrective exercises designed to optimize your body.

Where is the clinic located?

We are currently located at 405 Canal Street (The Landstrom's Building) in Rapid City. 

Do I need to see a physician before I start physical therapy?

No. You are allowed to see a physical therapist without a referral from a doctor in South Dakota. Many times this saves time and money, and helps you feel better faster. We will recommend you see a physician at times as needed, and can often assist you in getting an appointment fast with a physician within our network of trusted professionals.

What if I need help with a sport or activity that isn't listed as an available service?

That's OK! We have worked with individuals and athletes from a wide range of sports with a wider range of abilities. It doesn't matter if you are training for youth baseball, collegiate volleyball, or striving for the pros--we can apply our knowledge of the human body to elevate your performance or get you back to feeling better again.
