I think its the same here in NY. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Will keep at it and I will let you know how the PP does here. I have been wondering if we will ever even out the field with our rehab counter parts both PT and ST. I notice that ST do well here alone. Why can't we? Anyway just letting it out.

Juan, in my state of Florida, Medicare and Medicaid are TOTALLY different. In fact, Florida Medicaid does not even pay for adult therapy (i.e. over 18 years of age) unless the patient is one of the many waivers. I'm a Medicaid provider but almost NEVER bill them. Good luck with the PPOT referrals. I tried for 4 years and had VERY little success.
