What is Good Faith Estimate?You have the right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. • You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. • Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. • If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. • Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 313-550-6367.

How do I schedule an appointment?You can directly schedule through the link below:
-
What should I expect for my first session?The first session is the evaluation. We will start with what brought you into physical therapy and what you'd like to accomplish for your goals. We will ask you questions about your medical history, current symptoms, and your previous/current level of function. Then the PT will exam your range of motion, your strength, and how you move. If this session is for pelvic health, and you are comfortable with an internal examination, the PT will perform an internal examination to test the endurance, strength, coordination, and tone.
-
What should I wear during my sessions?Loose, comfortable clothes that allows you to move freely.
-
Do I need a prescription/referral from my primary care provider?No, you do not. Nevada is a Direct Access state which means patients are allowed to seek services from physical therapists without a prescription or referral from a physician.
-
Do you accept insurance?We do not accept insurance. Alavar Pelvic Health Physical Therapy is a cash-based physical therapy practice. Payment is collected at the time of service. However, we can provide, on request, a superbill so you can self-submit your physical therapy sessions to your insurance provider.
-
Do you do dry needling?Yes! We are certified Level 1 dry needlers. Due to the nature of the physical treatment, dry needling can only be done in-person in Nevada, within the Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas areas. We can drive to your home to perform dry needling.
-
Can I pay cash if I have Medicare?Alavar Pelvic Health Physical Therapy does not have a relationship with Medicare, which means that we are unable to see patients for services that are normally covered by Medicare. We can, however, see patients for wellness visits and other non-covered services.
-
Do you treat men for pelvic health?Yes. We treat all adults with their pelvic health needs.

Can I still have a session while menstruating?Yes. If you are comfortable with internal work, we can do that while you are menstruating. If you are not comfortable with internal work during this time, there are plenty of external work we can do instead.
