Question 1

What is occupational therapy for kids?

Pediatric occupational therapy is a healthcare profession that uses sensory, motor, emotional, cognitive, and environmental strategies to help kids do the things they need to do and want to do so they can play, move, learn, and perform their best throughout the day.

Question 2

How will OT help my child?

Accepted Answer

Question 3

Does Kidable accept my insurance?

Accepted Answer

Question 4

How do I set up services? Do I need a physician's referral?

Accepted Answer

You do not need a physician's referral to begin services.   Though professional referrals are happily accepted, they are only required if your insurance company needs the referral to support out-of-network reimbursement (this is rare). If your PCP would like to send an OT referral, please have them fax it to 540-566-5149.   The fastest way to get started with services is for the child's primary caregiver to email Dr. Lauren Pittard, our owner and pediatric occupational therapist. Lauren@kidabletherapy.com   Lauren will be able to answer all your questions and even set up a phone call to make sure Kidable is a great fit with your family prior to setting up an evaluation.   Consult calls and evaluations can also be scheduled on Kidable's client portal: https://kidabletherapy.clientsecure.me
