How do I receive AtHome outpatient rehab services?

In order to receive AtHome Rehab services, a you must be referred by a physician, nurse, community agency, family member, or you may refer yourself. The reason for the referral should be communicated to our office. A referral for our in-home therapy services can be phoned into the office at 605-231-2490 or faxed to 605-336-0812.

Upon referral, Goodcare AtHome Rehab will confirm that the client’s therapy needs are best met by our outpatient rehab services. If the client’s therapy needs are best met by our outpatient therapy services, we will secure a physician order and notify our therapy team.

Prior to the your scheduled appointment, our office will require some basic information from you as well as your insurance provider and applicable insurance information. You can fill out our intake form located in the “Contact Us” page of our website and return it via fax or call with the required information.

Reimbursement for in-home rehab services will be billed under Medicare Part B and supplemental insurance or a managed Medicare plan if applicable. Goodcare AtHome Rehab will bill you the “patient responsibility” amount as indicated by the insurance company.

We recognize the client-therapist relationship is built on trust, respect, and consistency. Therefore, we do our very best to provide each of our clients the benefit of working with the same therapist for the duration of their treatment.

  • You have a need for physical therapy, occupational therapy, or speech therapy
