[EP296] - Did I just get dumped by my PT?
Hi everyone!
Hope you're all well!
Welcome to my video made exclusively for D.Tube and Cinnamon
So, I was starting to wind down my physical therapy visits, when suddenly they just kind of discharged me and told me to come back and start over if I had any issues in a month or so.
I don't really understand what happened... I would have thought they would keep working with me for as long as I was willing to pay them...
They were super expensive, and healthcare is rough in the US... but yeah, dumped, so confused.
What do you think?
Thanks for watching!

Was it an "It's not you, it's me" kinda thing?
It was exactly that.... but by the look in their eye, I could tell it was really me.
In my experience, its 50/50 whether or not a PT provider will give you the boot or the treatments will drag on.
It largely depends on your insurance company. My medical insurance covers a set number of visits before requiring a re-evaluation. When my car insurance was paying for it though, they just keep asking me to come until I got sick of it and asked to be discharged.
So, don't worry, its them :P
Hahaha, I had assumed as much... there was definitely a whole lot going on behind the scenes here. My PT was so stressed about the convo... and I can only assume because it didn't feel right at all and had nothing to do with the actual medical progress I was making.
I wonder if there are medical brokers out there... people who help you navigate this crazy, crazy system.
I'm sure there are... Somewhere. You probably just need to run through a complicated series of challenges to find them ;)
Sorry to hear that @ninjavideo. Medical stuff in the States can be perplexing to say the least
It really is... I've been here for 5 years so far. I've been so surprised so much with this system. It's so crazy to me that I can only go to particular physical therapists because of the insurance.
