FAQs about Services

Jen is a concierge, out-of-network, provider meaning that she does not directly bill insurance. The benefit of not billing insurance directly is that 100% of your visit is devoted to your individualized needs and not dictated by insurance parameters, authorization forms or what codes/ services they will cover. She can work to correct the full body (and get to the root of the dysfunction) without being isolated to one body part. Since your session is 1:1 and devoted specifically to you, she rarely sees patients for more than 6 visits.
Jen will gladly send you super bills after your physical therapy treatment for you to submit to your insurance company. You will want to call the number on the back of your insurance card to ask what your out-of-network coverage is for physical therapy and how you submit for reimbursement. Some insurances are simple and have an online process or fax, while others have forms. There are no hidden costs and payment is due at time of service. FSA/HSA cards are also accepted.

In the state of Missouri, we do not need a physician referral for the initial physical therapy visit. If subsequent physical therapy visits are required, we will fax a prescription with a detailed evaluation to a provider of your choice.
If we are seeing you for bike fitting, wellness/ injury prevention, performance or environmental coaching- no physician referral is required.

We schedule bike fits for 2 hours- typically new fits fall between 60-120 minutes. If we diagnose that you need a different stem, we carry Ritchey WCS, black that are $135. You can always purchase one through your local bike shop or online. I typically ask that you remove any mounts on the handlebars ahead of time to expedite the process.
We will send follow up forms, appointment reminder, location, etc… via email through the system, Jane. You will want to bring the following items with you:
1) bike
2) bike shoes
3) any insoles you’ve used
4) any spare stems or saddles
5) chamois (bike shorts)
6) top comfortable to sweat in (you will likely have to work a little as we dial in)
7) water/ water bottle (I have some if you forget)

We can ask your provider to order specific labs or I can assist and order specific tests and test kits through Great Plains Laboratory, Vibrant America/ Vibrant Wellness or Envirobiomics.
