Frequently Asked Questions

The therapist reviews the patient's medical history, current condition, and goals before assessing movement, strength, mobility, and functional abilities. A personalized treatment plan is then developed, and hands-on care or therapeutic exercise may begin during the first session.

Patients should bring a photo ID, insurance card, and any applicable physician referral or post-operative protocol. A medication list may also be helpful. Comfortable exercise clothing and closed-toe shoes are recommended.

Athletico identifies Kentucky as a direct-access state, so patients may be able to start physical therapy without a physician's prescription. Direct-access requirements can vary by service, and insurance plans may have separate coverage rules.

A licensed clinician conducts a personalized 30-minute assessment, listens to the patient's concerns, evaluates the condition or movement problem, and recommends appropriate next steps. The assessment has no cost or treatment obligation, although restrictions apply and some federally funded plan beneficiaries are not eligible.

The clinic accepts numerous commercial, Medicare, Medicaid, veterans, and workers' compensation plans. Athletico verifies coverage as a courtesy and provides patients with an estimate of therapy benefits reported by their insurance carrier.

Patients can submit an appointment request through Athletico's website or call the Louisville St. Matthews clinic at 502-694-3500. The clinic offers weekday appointments, with early morning and evening hours available on selected days.
