Description

Neurologically impaired individuals often fall between the cracks of reimbursement once their condition becomes chronic. Insurance payors easily default to a refusal of payment once an impairment is no longer acute. However, evidence abounds in favor of functional gain via neuroplasticity regardless of the time elapsed since the onset of symptoms.

Discover how to demonstrate this concept to your patients. You can provide rapid returns to their desired quality of life with therapy strategies that are of high quality and low expense. Utilization of functional activities in their purest form, will yield the success necessary to justify treatment that guarantees results.
