We urge you to contact your insurance company before your first appointment to confirm the physical therapy benefits available under your insurance plan.  You may also call one of our six clinics and they will be happy to assist you in verifying coverage.

Medicare

• NMSMC participates with Medicare and all affiliated Medicare Advantage plans.  Each clinic is individually credentialed with Medicare.
• Our office will bill all Medicare supplemental plans for the Part B deductible and coinsurance amounts.
• Medicare prohibits participating providers from routinely waiving the patient’s deductible and coinsurance amount under Part B services.
• A new prescription is required every thirty days in order to continue with physical therapy.

Blue Cross Blue Shield

NMSMC participates with most of the Blues, including out of state Blue Cross Blue Shield Plans.  Patient will be billed for any deductible and/or coinsurance amounts as indicated by their Blue Cross Blue Shield coverage, after payment is received from the insurance company.

Our staff of expert billers is able to handle secondary and tertiary claims submission on behalf of our patients.  Please present all insurance cards which cover physical therapy to our front desk staff during your first visit.
