No PIP?
No PIP? Letters of protection or workers' comp
If your PIP ran out, was denied, or you have a claim against the at-fault driver, a letter of protection (LOP) may let you continue physical therapy; it is usually arranged through your attorney. If the crash happened while you were working, workers' compensation may apply, and we accept it.
Florida law prohibits paying for patient referrals and soliciting crash victims. This is not legal advice.
We do not accept Medicaid, including Florida Medicaid managed-care plans.

FAQ
Questions from Hialeah patients
?Do you accept PIP for car accident physical therapy for Hialeah patients?
Yes. All In One Specialty Health, at 16191 NW 57 Ave, Suite A, Miami Gardens, accepts Florida PIP and letters of protection (LOP) for physical therapy after a car accident. PIP first requires initial care within 14 days of the crash from a medical doctor, osteopathic physician, chiropractor, dentist, APRN, hospital or emergency services, and then a referral for physical therapy. For PIP, we bill your auto insurer directly. Billing directly does not guarantee coverage: what PIP pays depends on your policy and your claim.
?What is the 14-day rule?
Florida PIP pays medical benefits only if you get initial care within 14 days after the accident (§ 627.736(1)(a)). The clock starts on the day of the crash. A physical therapist cannot provide that first visit; physical therapy is follow-up care.
?Do I need a referral?
Yes, for PIP. Physical therapy under PIP needs a referral from the provider who gave you initial care or another qualifying provider (§ 627.736(1)(a)2). Bring it to your first visit. Physicians located in our building can perform the initial PIP evaluation within 14 days, and we coordinate your therapy plan with them. You can also bring a referral from your own doctor or chiropractor.
?Do you accept letters of protection?
Yes. With a letter of protection (LOP), treatment is paid later from a settlement or judgment, usually arranged by your attorney. In a lawsuit, Florida law (§ 768.0427(3)) requires disclosing the letter, itemized coded bills, your health coverage and whether you were referred for treatment and by whom.
?Is your clinic in Hialeah?
No. Our clinic is in Miami Gardens, at 16191 NW 57 Ave, Suite A, a short drive north of Hialeah: about 5 minutes from North Hialeah (W 84 St & W 12 Ave) and about 13 minutes from central Hialeah (Palm Ave), without traffic. Parking is free, and there is a bus stop right in front of the clinic.
?I was in an accident 5 days ago. What do I do first?
If no one has examined you yet, get initial care now, before day 14, from a medical doctor, osteopathic physician, chiropractor, dentist or APRN, or at a hospital. Ask for a referral to physical therapy, then call (786) 613-7160 with your PIP claim number. If you have severe symptoms, call 911.
?Do you see patients from Hialeah Gardens?
Yes. From NW 103 St & NW 87 Ave in Hialeah Gardens, our clinic is about 7.1 miles (11.5 km), about 12 minutes without traffic using the Gratigny Parkway (toll), or about 13 minutes on a toll-free route.
