At Rush Physical Therapy, we are a cash-based physical therapy clinic. What does this mean? As providers, it means we are out of network with your insurance, but this is actually a GOOD thing for you, THE PATIENT. This means our focus is on one thing . . . YOU!
Far too often, we hear tales of a patient spending up to HOURS in a clinic where they may only see the provider for a few minutes, IF AT ALL! Or, we hear tales of multiple patients at one time being juggled by single provider. When insurance companies dictate pay, they dictate care, and providers are often required to see multiple patients at the same time in order to make a living. The providers are answering to an insurance company rather than the patient they are treating. This is UNACCEPTABLE!
We are not trying to appease the insurance companies. Eliminating the influence of insurance companies cuts down on unnecessary/wasteful processes and pauses-in-care that take focus away from the patient. More importantly, it better EMPOWERS our providers to make the best decision for the patient at any moment!
Research actually shows that cash pay PT actually results in LOWER COSTS to the patient when compared to in-network services. More PERSONALIZED and EFFICIENT care also means spending less time in the clinic and more time living your LIFE! We are able to treat the WHOLE person and not just one specific injury.
At Rush Physical Therapy, we THRIVE on getting our patient back to doing what they love!
