Thank you for choosing Hillcrest Physical Therapy!

The following information will guide you through your first visit and introduce you to the physical rehabilitation process. Here's what to expect...

Referral for treatments:


Most patients come to us with a referral for physical, occupational, or speech  therapy that was given by their physician.  Although a physical therapist can directly see you without a referral, most insurance companies do require a physician referral for payment coverage.

Appointments:


Call Hillcrest Physical Therapy at 402-682-4210 to schedule your initial visit and evaluation. As a newly referred patient, we will accommodate your schedule to the best of our ability.

Insurance verification:


Our staff will verify your insurance and our participation in your specific insurance plan.

The following is a list of the forms you will be expected to fill out on your first visit.  To speed up the check in process, you may print some of the forms and fill them out prior to your first visit.

What to Wear:


We usually recommend that patients wear looser-fitting exercise clothing and sneakers for maximum comfort.

Patient Registration Forms:


Please arrive 10-15 minutes early to allow time to complete your new patient registration forms.  When you arrive at the center, our receptionist will greet you and review the forms.  The receptionist will schedule all of your appointments and collect your co-payment (if applicable) at each visit.

Meet the Therapist:


You will meet with a Therapist who will evaluate your injury or condition, discuss your goals and specific needs and develop an individualized treatment plan.

Next Steps:


The length of your treatment plan and frequency of visits will be a mutually decided decision between you and your therapist based on your specific injury/condition, your desired outcome, your insurance plan and the therapist's recommended treatment plan.


At each visit, you will work with an experienced clinician who will instruct and assess your progress. As you reach specific treatment goals, you will progress to new levels, treatments and exercises.

In most cases,  you will have more than one therapy appointment a week.

Our therapists will reinforce the importance of attending scheduled appointments.  This is a component of your responsibility to progress towards your goals.


Our receptionist will call you to remind you about your upcoming appointments.


You will be provided with a home exercise program that complements your plan of care.  The home program is an important part of the healing process and will assist you in achieving your goals.


Your therapist will maintain regular contact with your doctor, surgeon and/or case manager to ensure timely updates on your progress.


We accept claims from most major insurance companies, Medicare and Medicaid, Workers' Compensation as well as motor vehicle accident claims.
