- • Ask whether you need a referral — even in direct-access states, some plans require one for reimbursement.
- • Wear comfortable clothing — loose clothes and sneakers let you move freely during the evaluation.
- • Bring imaging and referrals — X-ray/MRI reports or a surgeon's notes help the therapist tailor your plan.
