@ILMairport could you have someone from @Delta at your airport answer their phone? My bag has been sitting in your airport for 3 days.

@CharisseEvans Can you get someone from Delta @ Wilmington NC airport to answer the phone? Three days now and even Delta corporate can’t get them to answer.

[Krisi Probert @krisiprobert]

@MaeExhausted @BethMooreLPM Yep! Worked in long term care many years ago and learned this ole wives’ tale.

[Seth Peterson @DrSethPT]

@SeemaCMS @CMSGov If you want to pay for time spent with patients @SeemaCMS #physicaltheralists DO that. Also, why is there?

A payment reduction for doing >1 procedure?

Equivalent pay for longer “high complexity” evaluations?

PTs help during #opioid epidemic and #COVID.

Just, WHY???

[BrendanSullivanDPT @SullPTCSCS]

@SeemaCMS @CMSGov @SeemaCMS if this is the case you need to reconsider the proposed 9% cut to #physicaltherapy services. We spend an exceptional amount of 1:1 time with patients and have seen continued reductions in payment for our services.We are invaluable in providing non-opioid pain treatment

[Krisi Probert @krisiprobert]

@SeemaCMS @CMSGov Thank you for this important and common-sense decision!

Thank you @CMSGov ! About time but thank you!

[Jerry Durham @Jerry_DurhamPT]

.... HEADS UP MEDICARE RECIPIENTS...

Medicare is NOT paying for you to get telehealth visits with your Physical Therapists....

It's go into a clinic physically with others... OR nothing...

FYI.... that is 100% on @CMSGov and @SeemaCMS ...

@Jerry_DurhamPT @CMSGov @SeemaCMS It's horrible @CMS won't do the right thing and take care of their beneficiaries. They should be ashamed! @HHSGov @Surgeon_General @GOPLeader @KamalaHarris @SenFeinstein @ABC

[Craig Lee @craiglee70]

Please help make this possible for our seniors during this pandemic. Only takes a couple of minutes. Thanks!

[Krisi Probert @krisiprobert]

@BUGoldenTigers Much love for this one!

[Mike Lochstampfor @mlochstampfor]

A huge thank you, Anna, on your many contributions to our great competitive cheer program!

“Precluding therapy professionals from Medicare telehealth reimbursements: a significant lack of access for beneficiaries relying on care...critical to living independently.”—4/14/20 letter to HHS, 8 congressmembers @realDonaldTrump @FoxNews @AARP @CMSgovPress @SeemaCMS @CNN

[Mark Milligan @MarkMilliganDPT]

@karenlitzyNYC @WhiteHouse @SeemaCMS The biggest issue is that we (the providers) have to tell the patients that this doesn't apply to our care making US look like the bad guy.... @SeemaCMS beneficiaries need to know that they are being DENIED CARE or worse FORCED to have in-person care when they are high risk!

[Krisi Probert @krisiprobert]

@WhiteHouse @SeemaCMS By approving physical & occupational therapy codes but not approving PTs/OTs to provide the service, seniors are missing out on vital services we could be providing via telehealth. Do the right thing! @realDonaldTrump @SeemaCMS @JeromeAdamsMD

[Nicole Godett @ngodett]

CMS still has work to do. Make PTs, OTs & SLPs telehealth providers so seniors can get the care we provide without unnecessary exposure to covid 19. @CMSGov @SeemaCMS @GOPLeader @Surgeon_General

[Dan McCutchen @Dancutch]

Some states are red
Some states are blue
Physical therapists are still not CMS telehealth providers
@SeemaCMS knows what they should do.

[Krisi Probert @krisiprobert]

@JeromeAdamsMD PLEASE stop perpetuating the message to seniors that PT & OT are available via telehealth. You guys approved the codes, but we aren’t approved providers. It’s a sham, and we are having to explain this to seniors and be the bad guy. Not fair to us. @SeemaCMS
