What is mobile occupational therapy?
Mobile outpatient therapy is a somewhat new concept in this area. Like home health care therapy, the therapist comes to the patient's home where she can provide therapy services within the patient's own environment. Unlike home health care, nursing services are not available. Mobile outpatient therapy can benefit those who do not have transportation to appointments, assess home safety concerns, and provide caregiver training/education. Patients do not have to be homebound. It is billed under Medicare Part B.
