Arizonans Enjoy Direct Access To Physical Therapy

Arizona is one of the states where patients enjoy direct access to physical therapy services without seeking a referral from a physician. What does this mean to you? This means faster access to the healthcare professionals, such as physical therapists and chiropractors, best suited to treat your condition as well as unnecessary medical bills and delays in getting treatment.

States that allow direct access to physical therapy and chiropractic care makes it easier for patients suffering from severe and chronic conditions and illnesses to seek medical support without delays. In states that do not allow direct access to services such as physical therapy and chiropractic care, patients must first see their physician for a referral before seeing a specialist, which increases costs and creates delays in patients seeking treatment.

Direct access gives you, the patient, this most fundamental right: the right to be your own best healthcare advocate.

Physical therapists and chiropractors, like those at Fusion, have experience in treating and managing complicated health problems and pain that occurs from:

– Auto Accidents

– Sports Injury
– Post-surgical Orthopedic Conditions

– Back & Joint Discomfort Due to Pregnancy

By gaining direct access to these services, you are assured of quality health care services in a timely and cost effective manner.

The decision to allow direct access to physical therapy is a beneficial policy for Arizonans. Direct access to physical therapy now means that many burdensome regulations have been eliminated which gives you the chance to make appropriate, timely and cost effective decisions concerning your healthcare.
