If you have a patient in need of service, please fax their demographics to us (including front/back copies of their insurance cards & driver’s license) along with your order for “OT Lymphedema Eval & Treat.” Once an evaluation is complete, we will fax the plan of care to you for signature. For Medicare patients, we cannot provide treatment until your signature is received. We know your time is limited. Our goal is to make the referral process as easy as possible for you.
Outpatient
We are currently in-network with Medicare, BCBS & United Healthcare. We are credentialing with other major carriers. Visit www.LTStherapy.com/patients for updates. These visits are done in the office. Home visits may be made within a 10-mile radius on a case-by-case basis. A patient cannot be on service with a home health agency (whether seen in office or in the home).
Home Health
If your patient is on service with a home health agency, we cannot see them at the same time except in two cases. One: A patient is paying cash for their care (or sometimes in a hospice situation). Two: We negotiate a contract with a patient’s home health agency (or use one with whom we partner).
Note: As of 2021, we no longer partner with home health agencies to provide lymphedema services to patients. For a patient to qualify for home health services (offered by a home health agency, not by us as outpatient providers), visit:

Thank you for considering us as providers for your patient’s needs. We look forward to the opportunity of serving.
