Insurance & Billing at Gramercy Physical Therapy
At Gramercy Physical Therapy, we believe access to high-quality care shouldn’t be complicated. That’s why we make the insurance and billing process as simple, transparent, and stress-free as possible. Whether you’re using insurance or paying privately, our team is here to help you understand your options so you can focus on what matters most — your recovery.
Insurance Plans We Accept
We proudly accept the following health insurance plans for physical therapy services:
Medicare
United Healthcare
United Healthcare AARP
Oxford
Cigna
We are also proud to work with patients who have out-of-network (OON) benefits through the following plans:
Blue Cross Blue Shield (OON)
Aetna (OON)
GHI (OON)
If you’re unsure whether you have out-of-network coverage, don’t worry — our administrative team will gladly verify your benefits and explain exactly what your plan covers before your first appointment.
What Are Out-of-Network (OON) Benefits?
Out-of-network (OON) benefits allow you to receive care from a provider who is not directly contracted with your insurance company — while still receiving partial reimbursement. Many of our patients take advantage of their OON benefits because it gives them access to higher-quality, more personalized care.
Our team will provide you with a detailed breakdown of:
Your deductible and how much you’ve met
The percentage your insurance will reimburse
Any co-insurance or out-of-pocket costs you can expect
We also submit claims on your behalf to streamline the process. You’ll never be left guessing or overwhelmed by paperwork.
No Referral? No Problem.
New York State allows Direct Access to Physical Therapy, which means you can start treatment without a referral from a physician in most cases. This includes both Medicare and private insurance plans (up to 10 visits or 30 days).
If your insurance does require a referral or authorization, we’ll help coordinate with your provider to ensure everything is in place.
Transparent Billing & Support
We’re committed to transparent, ethical billing practices. Before your first session, you’ll receive a clear explanation of what your insurance will cover and what (if any) your out-of-pocket responsibility will be.
There are no hidden fees or surprise bills.
If your plan does not cover our services or if you are uninsured, we also offer competitive private pay options.
Why Patients Choose Gramercy PT — Even OON
Many of our patients choose to come to us even when we are out-of-network with their insurance — and here’s why:
One-on-One Treatment Only – You’ll never be passed to an assistant
Manual Therapy Experts – Our hands-on techniques are hard to find elsewhere
Private Sessions in a Calm Setting – No loud gym floors or packed schedules
Customized Care for Faster Recovery – We treat the root cause, not just symptoms
Our patients value the quality, consistency, and results we provide — and many find that the out-of-network investment leads to a faster, more complete recovery.
