Getting Started:
If you suspect your child may need skilled therapy, contact your
Family Resources Coordinator in Chelan and Douglas Counties at (509) 664-3781.
During the phone call, you will need to
provide basic information about your child such as their name, date of birth, diagnosis from doctor, insurance information, and the name of their primary doctor.
Family Resources Coordinator will then schedule an evaluation with our team here at the PTC.
Call your insurance provider. Find out whether your policy covers the type of therapy you are requesting, the number of visits allowed and whether your policy requires co-payment.
It is your responsibility to understand your insurance benefits.
The evaluation will take about one hour. Many questions will be asked about your child's past medical history, birth history and current skills. Observations of play and child friendly standardized tests are performed to determine and evaluate your child's strengths and weaknesses. The information obtained is used to determine if your child has a need for therapy and our services.
Our team will review then evaluate the findings and respond to the
Family Resources Coordinator
with our recommendations and suggestions for services if they are required.
Your
Family Resources Coordinator will then contact you with the results and schedule appointments and complete the necessary paperwork should your child require services.
Service Costs, Payments & Fees:
Service costs are based on a families ability to pay. When determining the costs and fees associated with our services, the family’s eligibility for third party payments, such as Medical Insurance, Medicaid, School Districts and the Division of Developmental Disabilities from the State of Washington and Part C of IDEA are completely reviewed.
Patients with HMO or PPO coverage are responsible for initial registration fees ($30.00), co-payments and all deductibles. The PTC will support patient co-payments in a given calendar year as financially viable. If you are unable to make co-payments during a calendar year, a letter of hardship and request for support is required on file. All patients are responsible for deductibles and will be billed accordingly.
No child, however, is denied services because of their families inability to pay.
Please contact our Program Services team with any questions you should have concerning our services or billing.
