New Year- New Medicare Therapy Dollars!
What does the Medicare Therapy CAP mean to You?
Every year- Medicare beneficiaries are given new therapy dollars to be used for Physical, Occupational & Speech Therapy Services received in an outpatient setting. Physical Therapy is important for Medicare beneficiaries in their efforts to stay healthy and active, independent and pain free!
In 2018- Medicare eliminated the inflexible limit to the amount of therapy they will pay for in a calendar year- once termed the Therapy CAP. Instead they reinforced requirements of these services being “Medically Necessary” under the benefit.
In 2019- the Therapy CAP amount initially provide is $2040 for Physical and Speech Therapy combined and $2040 for Occupational Therapy. which is subject to a deductible of and then a 20% co-pay. This co-pay may be submitted to a Medicare recipient’s secondary plan or Medicaid if you are eligible.
Therapy Services that are “over the CAP” in any calendar year are still payable by Medicare if the therapy meets certain criteria of being “medically necessary”.
What types of Physical Therapy services does Medicare Part B (Outpatient) cover for me?
Rehabilitative Therapy: Your ability to function related to a …. “condition that has the potential to improve or is improving in response to [skilled] therapy, maximum improvement is yet to be attained; and there is an expectation that the anticipated improvement is attainable in a reasonable and generally predictable period of time. Improvement is demonstrated by specific measurements whenever possible.”
Maintenance Therapy: Your … “treatment by the therapist is necessary to maintain, prevent or slow further deterioration of your functional status and the services cannot be safely carried out by the by yourself or by a family member, another caregiver or unskilled personnel.”*
What does Skilled Therapy mean?
Therapy services must be considered “skilled” to be covered by Medicare.
Medicare describes skill as:
“The services shall be of such a level of complexity and sophistication or the condition of the patient shall be such that the services required can only be safely and effectively performed by a qualified clinician, or therapists supervising assistants.”*
* (see the National Government Services Outpatient Physical and Occupational Therapy Local Coverage Determination)
Talk to your Physical Therapist or Physician to determine if Physical Therapy is for you in 2019 to help you attain your goals of staying active, independent & pain free!

Herpes Cure
I'm recommending Dr Osato to everyone who has herpes simplex virus to get the cure from him. I was diagnosed with genital herpes in 2019 and i have been searching and asking questions to see if i could get something to cure the virus because i did not believe what the doctors say that no cure is found yet. I came across a comment on Youtube and the person testified how she was cured from herpes and hpv after using Dr Osato herbal medicine. I quickly contacted Dr Osato and explained my problem to him and he prepared the herbs and sent it to me through UPS and gave me instructions on how to use it and told me to go for checkup after usage which i did after two weeks of taking the herbal medicine and my result was NEGATIVE. I waited another month and retested, the result was still NEGATIVE and my doctor told me that I am completely free from herpes. Am so happy and grateful to Dr Osato for what he has done for me and i will continue to share this for people out there to know that there is a cure for herpes. You can contact Dr Osato on email and WhatsApp to get the cure from him. Email: osatoherbalcure@gmail.com and WhatsApp +2347051705853. His website is https://osatoherbalcure.wordpress.com

Chief Dr. Odunga Herbal Remedies
I want to use this opportunity to testify of the marvelous work of Dr. Odunga and how he has helped me in curing my sickness and bringing happiness into my life. I can really vouch for Dr. Odunga in herbal treatment. I was suffering from Cervical Cancer and infected with HPV 16. I used to have unusual vaginal bleeding and painful urination. There was nothing I could do until a childhood friend introduced me to Dr. Odunga Remedies. I spoke with him and ordered his recommended medication which was delivered to me through DHL. Immediately I began using herbal medicine, and within a week I couldn't feel any pain. It took me 2 weeks to finish the medicine and afterwards I was completely cured. I highly recommend that you order your herbal medication through Chief Dr. Odunga. Contact his email odungaspelltemple@gmail.com OR What'sApp/Call him at +2348167159012

FAST EFFECTIVE WAY TO GET CURED FROM HERPES VIRUS
Hello! I’m very excited to share what worked for me to everyone. I’m completely cured from my HSV1&2 with the use of natural medicine. I have used Oregano oil, Coconut oil, Acyclovir, Valacyclovir, Famciclovir and some other products/supplements and it hasn’t helped ever since I was diagnosed. I got outbreaks frequently and was completely devastated and I went online for a possible cure and how to get rid of Herpes. On a fateful day after taking my bath, I took my phone and was going through some research, I bumped into a testimonial of a Herbs doctor { Dr Awase } who cures diverse diseases/viruses with Herbal medication. I was hopeful but also doubted the claim. But after a while I thought “what do I have to lose?” so I decided to reach out. He prepared a cure using roots and herbs which I steadily took for 14days as prescribed by him. I am quite glad I decided to reach out because I am totally cured from Herpes after a medical checkup was done by my Dr. So I’ve decided to make a quick testimony for anyone out there who is probably suffering from an illness they can’t handle to reach out to Dr Awase. He specializes in curing lots of illnesses such as HIV, ENDOMETRIOSIS, PCOS, OVARIAN CYST, INFERTILITY, HEPATITIS A,B,C and lots more. I’m here to let you all know that you can also be cured just like me and you don’t have to live with any sort of illness for the rest of your life.
