Work Conditioning Therapy Session

Nationwide rates for HCPCS 97545

A supervised therapy program that rebuilds the strength, stamina, and movement patterns a person needs to return to their job after injury or illness, using tasks that mimic real work such as lifting, carrying, and repeated reaching. Sessions are long and intensive compared with ordinary clinic therapy, and progress is measured against the demands of the person's actual job. This covers the first block of time in a session; longer sessions are charged for the extra time on top.
