♿️ You’ve been denied equipment in the past or are unsure how to get it approved through insurance
♿️ You feel overwhelmed by the paperwork and language required to justify medical necessity
♿️ You want expert recommendations from a licensed physical therapist who understands both your child’s needs and the systems involved
♿️ You need a Letter of Medical Necessity that clearly supports your request and increases your chances of approval

You don’t have to navigate this process alone—we’re here to guide you.

We work directly with your equipment vendor and medical team (when needed) to streamline the process and ensure your child gets what they need.

🛠 Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN)
We write detailed, customized LMNs based on your child's evaluation, using language that aligns with insurance criteria and highlights the medical need.
