Send a LetterAre you at Risk for a Fall? Falls are the #1 Cause of Injury Among Older Americans!
You should get a falls risk assessment – and it should be of no charge to you!
Falls are the #1 cause of injury in people over 65. Fortunately, your physical or occupational therapist can help reduce your risk by providing you with a fall risk assessment.
MEDICARE PATIENTS SHOULD RECEIVE A NO-COST FALLS RISK ASSESSMENT by a trained falls expert. With passage of the SAFE Act, they can!
A falls risk assessment should be a Medicare-covered benefit, but it isn’t, YET. Medicare does not currently cover a falls risk assessment as part of a senior’s annual well visit. * Imagine how many serious injuries or even deaths could be prevented if seniors could access a Medicare-covered assessment every year.*
PLEASE ASK CONGRESS TO MAKE YOUR FALLS RISK ASSESSMENT A MEDICARE-COVERED BENEFIT!
Members of Congress have introduced the SAFE Act. If passed, the Safe Act would provide a physical therapy and occupational therapy benefit in your Medicare annual wellness visit; ultimately providing your falls risk assessment through that benefit.
