Rehabilitation - Outpatient
Medicare and Medicaid will cover some outpatient rehabilitation services for older adults provided the services are provided in a manner consistent with Medicare/Medicaid requirements.
Medicare and Medicaid also certify outpatient facilities that meet the requirements established. To be certified as a Medicare and/or Medicaid Comprehensive Outpatient Rehabilitation Facility (CORF) a provider must follow applicable laws, regulations, and compliance information.
CORFs must provide coordinated outpatient diagnostic, therapeutic, and restorative services, at a single fixed location, to outpatients for the rehabilitation of injured, disabled or sick individuals. Physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech-language pathology services may be provided in an off-site location.
