Delaware is a smaller physical therapy billing market.

Delaware PT practices need RCM with PT depth.

What good physical therapy billing execution looks like for Delaware providers.

The Delaware physical therapy billing market has its own quirks. Here is the operating discipline we install on every Delaware engagement.

  1. 8-minute rule + timed code billingPT billing under Medicare 8-minute rule converts treatment minutes to billable units for timed codes (97110, 97112, 97140, 97530). Accurate time tracking is foundational.
  2. GP modifier disciplineAll PT services bill with GP modifier identifying physical therapy discipline. Missing GP triggers denial.
  3. Plan of Care + recertification cycleMedicare requires physician-signed Plan of Care every 90 days. Recertification timing must be tracked to avoid lapse.
  4. KX modifier above therapy thresholdMedicare therapy threshold ($2,330 in 2025) requires KX modifier and supporting documentation for continued medically necessary therapy.
  5. Outpatient vs home health PT distinctionDelaware PT practices serving home health must coordinate billing under home health PPS rather than outpatient. Wrong billing channel triggers denial.
  6. Direct access state + PA-aware workflowDelaware direct access PT rules vary. Some states allow PT without physician referral; others require POC signature. Workflow needs to match state law.
