– We ask that you please allow 24 hours’ notice for any cancellations. If you have to cancel without enough notice, a $30 cancellation fee will be applied.

In Motion O.C. works to minimize your out-of-pocket expense and ensure your health insurance covers as much of your physical therapy treatments as possible. We take care of health insurance verification and worker’s compensation authorization at no additional cost to the patient. Your out-of-pocket expense will vary depending on your insurance plan. Prescribed physical therapy is typically covered—at least partially—by most insurance companies. Depending on your insurance policy, you may or may not have a co-payment and/or deductible.
