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:

Standard physical therapy can be billed to insurance (out-of-network) or paid out of pocket. Recovery & Wellness services are self-pay only.

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?+

Shockwave and TECAR are self-pay services. If your plan includes applicable physical therapy benefits, evaluations and other eligible PT services may be covered or reimbursable after your deductible is met. Coverage depends on your individual plan.

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.
