If you are rescheduling with more than 2 business days advance notice, we strongly encourage you to contact your therapist directly but if you can't get in touch with them, you can either call us at 888-859-0145 or email us at support@petehealth.com.

There is no fee if you cancel or reschedule with more than 2 business days advance notice. If you cancel or reschedule with less than 2 business days notice, there is a $50 fee. Credit card information will be collected by the physical therapist at the time of your evaluation. You will be held responsible for the fee and your credit card will be charged.

We accept Medicare and are in network with most major PPO insurance plans. For most insurance plans, you will just pay the normal co-pay you would pay for a clinic appointment plus a marketplace fee*. For Medicare with secondary insurance, most visits will be at no cost. For self-pay, the out of pocket cost is $175 for the first evaluation and $150 for follow-up care. We can verify your benefits prior to your first appointment, get started here.

*The Marketplace Fee is a variable fee charged to patients. The Marketplace fee helps support safety compliance, healthcare technology, and sourcing of physical therapists.

Yes, typically you can have consistent care with the same physical therapist but in the rare case that schedules don't allow, we'll inform you ahead of time.

We'll make plans to come to your home, office, or wherever and whenever works best for you. Give us a call to work out all the details.

Most likely no. However, some insurance providers may require a physician referral, see below for more details. But no worries, we'll reach out to you if that's the case.

Commercial insurance (CA only): Direct Access rules do not require a prescription for physical therapy for up to 12 visits. After 12 visits or 45 days (whichever comes first), the PeteHealth team will help you obtain a prescription for more visits, when necessary.

Medicare rules: Medicare patients are required to have a signed plan of care for physical therapy. Your PeteHealth physical therapist will develop a plan of care during your first evaluation, and the PeteHealth team will work to obtain approval from a physician. A new plan of care will need to be submitted for approval every 90 days or 10 visits (whichever comes sooner), which the PeteHealth team will also help facilitate.
