The Physical Therapy Bill
Medicaid to cover more physical therapy services
An act relating to health insurance and Medicaid coverage for physical therapy services
Mixed: some good, some bad ·
If passed, the bill would require health insurers and Medicaid to pay for physical therapy, helping people get needed treatment without extra cost.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
Patients could get therapy covered, lowering out‑of‑pocket expenses; insurers may have to spend more, so the bill could improve health access but shift costs to insurers.
