Oh, ok. Sounds reasonable. I don't mean to be on your case, good luck on your continued strengthening and stretching.

Hi Lax,

Physical Therapy was fully covered. I had a $30 co-pay per visit and have been going to PT 3 days per week for the past 4.5 months. The other 4 week days; I stretched and exercised on my own per the plan that my PT Clinic provided me. I plan on continuing my  PT for another few months as well.   I believe that HMO also covers PT but you would be limited to the HMO Network PT provider.  My PPO allowed me a bit more flexibility to choose my PT Clinic.  Honestly, your HMO likely has a good PT Clinic.  Make sure they communicate directly with your doctor per your request and emphasize the need for strong stretching of hamstrings, hips, and quads...and strengthening of glutes and lower abs.  This is key.  Good luck and feel free to let me know if you have any more questions.

All the Best

IFS

Thanks a lot  IFS

They come to your home and do the Physical Therapy always , right ?  Does the insurance limit to 3 times per week?   i have a feeling that changing to ppo will be a good decision.

By the way, do you have any suggetion for the PRE-Surgery that i can do ,  i hope i could book a date in 1-2 month.

Actually, the PT is a clinic that you will travel to most of the time.  I believe there are a few that will come to your home; but I'm not sure which one's those are.   I believe that most PT clinics will provide pre-surgery but you need to get a prescription for that as well for it to be covered by insurance.
