No, Maryland is an open access state, meaning that you can call us directly to start care. We will then contact your physician as needed.

We are in-network with traditional Medicare and accept self-pay.

In order to provide the highest level of services, we will remain out of network for other insurances. This allows the clinician and the client to decide on the best treatment plan, not someone at the insurance company. We can provide a superbill for direct-pay clients to submit a reimbursement claim to their insurance if they have out-of-network benefits.

In-home therapy provides a range of benefits, including convenience, personalized attention, and a comfortable, familiar environment. It removes the need for travel, reducing stress, and allows the therapist to focus on your unique challenges in your own space. Medicare allows us to provide this outpatient service at no additional cost to the client compared to traditional clinics.

By visiting you at home, we gain a clearer understanding of your daily life, enabling us to tailor your treatment plan to your specific environment. This approach also minimizes exposure risks for those who are immunocompromised and improves access for individuals with mobility or transportation difficulties. No need to find someone to drive you or wait on Mobility.
