Insurance Coverage

With a doctor's or dentist's referral, our services are covered, at least in part, by most health insurance plans. As a courtesy, we call your insurance company to verify physical therapy benefits and obtain necessary authorization prior to the start of your treatment. Workers' compensation claims require pre-authorization. Our front office will work with you to obtain approval to receive treatment in our clinic.

Berkeley Physical Therapy is a contracted provider for many PPO and HMO health plans, including:

• Alameda Alliance • Alta Bates Medical Group • Benefit Risk Management • Blue Cross • Blue Shield • Community Health Care Network

• HealthNet • Great West • Medicare • Private Healthcare Systems • Sutter East Bay Medical Foundation • United Health Care

We are also a member of the Physical Therapy Provider Network, America's largest network of rehabilitation professionals in private practice.

Copayments and self pay fees are collected at the time of your physical therapy visit. Payment can be made by cash, check, credit or debit card.

For insurance related questions, contact our office manager, Lorelei Valencia at 510-549-2225. For billing questions, contact BMS Reimbursement Management, our billing company, at 1-800-478-2778.
