Wiki physical therapy capped for the year

[dalanicks@aol.com]

Hi I have a question for my sister in law, I see that physical therapists can now do telehealth, if they do telehealth, will the session they get be counted toward their cap for the year? Is there any information on this and if so where can I find it

thank you

I don't see any reason why it would NOT count. The codes are the same, just the place of service is different. I would evaluate whether the patient can actually benefit from physical therapy done remotely instead of just doing it on their own.
