Today’s episode is a Q&A session in which I answer recorded questions from listeners like you.

The following questions are answered in this episode:

• If a Medicare beneficiary is training for an event like a marathon and seeks my services due to an injury, would that be considered covered skilled PT services or wellness/fitness, or does it really depend on the type of treatment provided?

• How do you go about setting and assessing surcharges for travel time with home-based visits? Why is it important to do so rather than just charging more per unit of PT services.

• If a Medicare patient wants to see a cash-based PT, is that allowable?

• Do you (Jarod) treat Medicare patients in your cash-based practice? If so, how do you go about it to be safe and compliant?
