[quote=Anonymous]MRI out of pocket as a cash patient can be had for around 500. PT sessions with my PPO high deductible plans would cost north of 100 for each session out of pocket towards the deductible. It's more expensive to do a bunch of PT vs. an MRI even if MRI is not covered. :lol: Why would anyone in this situation want to do PT and not MRI? PT is also more expensive WITH insurance and deductible than getting beginner yoga/pilates classes in premium studios (which are often more effective than PT long term unless you have any severe issues). The only time PT is worth it is if it is AFTER the surgery when it's prescribed for recovery and regular exercise, stretching, conditioning may be dangerous. Plus, in that case you would have already maxed your entire out of pocket and it would be finally fully covered by the insurance. Our healthcare system is a joke. And being required to do a bunch of PT before getting an MRI or other diagnostic is a scam IMHO. [/quote]
