FAQ Physiotherapy

How much does a physiotherapy unit cost and how long do the units last?

The costs for physiotherapy depend on the medical prescription.

40-100% of the partial costs are individually reimbursed by the respective health insurance after submission of the invoice, the prescription, and your payment confirmation. The amount of reimbursement depends on the respective insurance carrier.

The duration of the units depends on the scope of the prescription, your individual needs, and the goals.

What is a medical prescription?

Collaboration in the field of physiotherapy for rehabilitation purposes always requires a medical prescription, which determines the scope of therapy.

You obtain this from your doctor.

How long is the prescription valid?

The first therapy session must take place within 1 month after the prescription is issued.

Do I need an approval?

An approval is not required for ÖGK & BVAEB. However, an approval is required for SVS & KFA.

What do I need to bring to the first therapy session?

For your first appointment, you need, in addition to a medical prescription, all relevant findings and doctor's letters, as well as comfortable clothing in which you can move well. Please also bring a water bottle and a towel.

What should I do if I cannot attend an appointment?

If you cannot keep your agreed appointment, please cancel by phone, SMS, or email as soon as possible. If an appointment is not cancelled at least 24 hours in advance, the entire unit and thus the full price will be charged.

How are follow-up appointments scheduled?

The next appointment is scheduled at the end of the session according to your wishes, needs, goals, and therapy progress, and is agreed upon together.

How does the partial cost reimbursement work?

To get a portion of the incurred costs reimbursed, you need the medical prescription, the invoices for the completed sessions, and a payment confirmation.
