Insurance & Pricing

Whether you're using insurance or paying out of pocket, you receive the same one-on-one care from Dr. Wu — no compromise on quality based on payment method.

Insurance Coverage

How Insurance Works Here

I'm an out-of-network provider — which sounds complicated, but for most people it's actually pretty straightforward. Here's how you can still get coverage:

Out-of-Network Benefits

If your plan includes out-of-network benefits (most PPO plans do), you can still use your insurance. You pay at the time of your visit, and I'll either provide a Superbill for you to submit yourself, or I can help submit the claim on your behalf — whichever is easier for you.

HSA / FSA

Physical therapy is an approved HSA and FSA expense. You can use your HSA or FSA card directly at checkout — no extra paperwork needed.

Aetna, Anthem, UnitedHealthcare, or Oscar

Some plans under these carriers may be covered through my third-party billing partner. Just reach out and share your plan details — I'll look into it and let you know within a few business days.

Not Sure What You Have?

No worries — just reach out and share your insurance card info. I'll take a look and let you know what your options are.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral?+

Most patients in New York State can see a physical therapist directly without a referral — this is called Direct Access. Some insurance plans require a referral for coverage; Dr. Wu will let you know if yours does.

How do I know if my plan has out-of-network benefits?+

The easiest way is to call the member services number on the back of your insurance card and ask: "Do I have out-of-network physical therapy benefits?" If yes, ask about your out-of-network deductible and reimbursement percentage. I'll provide a Superbill after each visit so you can submit for reimbursement.

Can I use HSA/FSA?+

Yes — physical therapy is an approved HSA/FSA expense. Both self-pay sessions and insurance copays are eligible.

Are the advanced technologies (shockwave, TECAR, laser) covered?+

Standard PT sessions are covered by insurance. Advanced technology upgrades (focused shockwave, TECAR) are self-pay additions. Many patients use the standard PT session for the base work and add the technology upgrade for targeted treatment.

What if I have Aetna, Anthem, UnitedHealthcare, or Oscar?+

Some plans under these carriers may be covered through my third-party billing partner. Reach out and share your plan details — I'll check and get back to you within a few business days.
