Paying for care
Cost is never a reason to go without care.
We accept Medicaid, Medicare, and major commercial insurance plans, and we offer an income-based sliding fee scale for patients who are uninsured, underinsured, or facing financial hardship. No one is turned away for inability to pay.
The short answer
Most patients pay between $0 and $25 per visit.
That is the whole sliding scale, top to bottom. $25 is the maximum any patient pays for a visit, regardless of income — and if you qualify at the lowest tier, you pay nothing.
What you need to start
Your insurance card, if you have one — we verify your benefits before your first visit, so there are no surprises.
For the sliding fee scale: proof of household income if you have it — a recent pay stub, tax return, or benefit award letter. If you don't, you'll sign a short self-attestation form at your first visit instead.
Have it ready beforehand so nothing delays your care. And asking what your visits would cost is always free — it never obligates you to schedule.
Three paths, one promise
Find the path that fits you.
We accept insurance and offer a sliding scale — both, not either. If you are not sure which applies to you, we will work it out with you before your first visit.
Pathway 01
Medicaid & Medicare
Health First Colorado and traditional Medicare are accepted across all of our clinical service lines.
This is you if
You're covered by Health First Colorado, or you have traditional Medicare.
Pathway 02
Commercial insurance
We are in-network with major commercial plans, and we verify your benefits before your first visit so you know your cost up front.
This is you if
You have insurance through an employer or the marketplace.
Pathway 03
Sliding fee scale
Income-based fees from $0 to a $25 maximum, funded by grants and philanthropy rather than passed on to you.
This is you if
You're uninsured, underinsured, out of network, out of covered visits, or facing financial hardship.
Sliding fee scale for clinical care (per visit)
Pay only what you can afford.
Your fee is based on your household income and how many people live in your household. There are no income-based exclusions — everyone qualifies for a tier, and $25 is the most anyone pays.
To enroll, bring documentation of your household income if you have it — a recent pay stub, tax return, or benefit award letter. If you can't, you'll sign a short self-attestation form instead. Either way, no one is turned away and no one waits for care.
Not sure which tier you land in?
Look up your household size in the 2026 HHS poverty guidelines (PDF, opens in a new tab) to find your percentage — or skip the math and let us do it for you.
| Household income | Fee per visit |
|---|---|
| 0–100% FPL | $0 — free |
| 101–150% FPL | $5 |
| 151–200% FPL | $10 |
| 201–250% FPL | $15 |
| 251–300% FPL | $20 |
| 301%+ FPL | $25 — the maximum |
FPL means Federal Poverty Level — a federal income guideline set each year that accounts for household size.
Adaptive fitness
Adaptive fitness membership
Access to adaptive gym equipment plus one complimentary one-on-one session each month with a certified adaptive trainer. Additional one-on-one sessions are $20 each, the same for everyone.
The sliding fee scale applies to the membership too, on the same tiers as your visits — free at the lowest tier, $50 at the highest. Financial barriers are never a reason to miss out on fitness.
Proposed pricing. The membership tiers below are pending board approval and may change before we open.
FAQ before your first visit:
Colorado is a direct-access state for physical therapy, so in most cases you can come to us without a physician referral. Some insurance plans require one for coverage, and Medicare has its own rules — we will check your specific plan before your first visit and tell you exactly what is needed. However, if you are able to bring a copy of your referral, this will ensure your care is provided more seamlessly.
If available, please bring a copy of your most recent pay stub, tax returns, or benefit award letters verifying your household income. If you are unable to provide this documentation, you will be asked to complete and sign a Self-Attestation of Household Income and Family Size form. Have this information ready before your first visit to avoid any delays in care.
If there are any changes to your income, financial circumstances, or legal household size, we kindly ask that you disclose this as soon as possible and re-apply for sliding fee tier re-determination.
Just like your insurance's co-pay, you would pay the assigned sliding fee tier per visit. This covers and includes evaluations, treatment sessions, any provided equipment, or no-show charges.
You are eligible for the sliding fee scale. Out-of-network patients are one of the exact groups it exists for — you pay the income-based fee rather than an out-of-network rate.
This is the single most common reason people come to us. When a plan caps you at 20, 30, or 60 visits and you still need care, you move onto the sliding fee scale and keep going. You are discharged when you have met your goals or are ready to transition to another program — not when a plan stops paying.
No. Asking questions about coverage, eligibility, or what your visits would cost is always free, and it never obligates you to schedule anything.
A photo ID, your insurance card if you have one, a list of your current medications, and any recent imaging or clinical notes you can get your hands on. If you are enrolling in the sliding scale, bring a copy of your most recent pay stub, tax return, or benefit award letter verifying your household income (if available).

A note while we're still building:
We are pre-launch and not yet open for clinical services, so the fees on this page describe what care will cost when our doors open. Everything here is our committed model, not a projection.
If you have an urgent medical need, please contact your primary care provider or call 911.
