Investment

Empowered Athletics Physical Therapy in Laguna Niguel is different from traditional/ insurance-based physical therapy clinics.

Dr. Kait Ireland in athletic wear is in a sprinting starting position outdoors on a grassy area, with trees and a blue sky in the background.

You will not experience:

  • Long wait times

  • Double (or triple!) booked appointments

  • Ineffective treatments

  • Spending most of your session with an Aide instead of your physical therapist

  • Cookie-cutter exercise programs

  • A provider who doesn’t understand the demands of sports, life, or lifting

  • Surprise bills

To provide the best care for my patients, I am not in-network with insurance companies. You may, however, be able to receive reimbursement for my services under your out-of-network benefits. Upon request, I am happy to check these for you and provide you with a copy of your Superbill receipt after each appointment, which you can submit to your insurance company.

Ways to Pay

  • Pay Direct!

Pay directly out-of-pocket after each session. Package discounts can help you save and/or you can also use your Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) funds.

  • Get Reimbursed!

Most major health insurance plans have out-of-network benefits through which you can receive reimbursement for the cost of care. You’ll pay after each session, submit the reimbursement request to your insurance, and receive a check.

  • Use Other Coverage

I accept some Workers’ Compensation plans and personal injury/car accident cases and offer direct billing options.

Medicare

Unfortunately, you cannot use Medicare Part B, Secondary, or Supplemental insurance coverage for physical therapy with Empowered Athletics PT.

However, you are welcome to receive wellness care with us on an out-of-pocket basis, independent of your insurance.

I really want to work with you on my limited budget. What can we do?

I value being able to provide high quality therapy services to my community. Since I operate outside of insurance-dictated rules, there is flexibility in the options I can use to fit the plan for your care to your available budget and resources. With your commitment to doing more of the work on your own and maintaining open channels of communication, we can discuss how we can accomplish our therapy goals with packages, the ability to split a package cost into 2-3 payments, consolidating care into fewer appointments, making use of online programming, or other options.
