Insurance PDF  | Print |  E-mail

Health Insurance can be confusing and difficult to understand. We believe it is important to know what your insurance coverage allows before your first visit, so the therapist can visit with you about a plan that will be covered under your insurance.

 

After an evaluation is performed, you will meet with our Patient Account Representative who will review your benefits and coverage at our facility. You are also assigned a specialist who will be your Care Coordinator. Your Care Coordinator is responsible for progress reports for your physician and additional reports that your insurance may require for continued therapy under our care.

National Leaders in Lymphedema Management PDF  | Print |  E-mail

In 1989, Therapy Concepts introduced the specialized in treatment known as Comprehensive Decongestive Physiotherapy (CDP) for the treatment of lymphedema and related venous disorders. Since then, more resources, training and treatment centers have become available for these long overlooked conditions.

 

Comprehensive Decongestive Physiotherapy (CDP) is the unique trademarked program of Therapy Concepts designed after the therapy model known as Complex Decongestive Physiotherapy in Europe. With a history of over 60 years of success in Europe, CDP is well documented and effective therapy for numerous lymphatic and phlebolymphatic disorders, including lymphedema. The European program originally included Manual Lymphatic Drainage, multi-layered compression bandaging, remedial exercise and hygiene/skin care instruction.

 

Therapy Concepts program includes the essential components of nutritional counseling, psychosocial counseling, support groups, Wound or skin care, Compression garments (custom & ready fit) and extensive education for self care and caregivers. While the treatment program can be intensive and lengthy for some (depending on the stage of the disease and other health factors) the long term results speak for themselves. Over 9,000 patients have experienced the level of care that has helped set national standards of care for lymphedema.

 

Our Executive Director, staff and Advisory Board members regularly attend and present at international and national conferences to share our results and learn of new developments, products and research in this emerging field of medicine. We are confident that our program provides the most up to date information and optimal results for patients with lymphedema.

 

You are invited to contact one of our patient advocates or board members,, or attend a support group or visit our facility. For more information about lymphedema, visit www.lymphology.org for more details.

Over the years, we have had the privilege to know and participate in the recovery of some amazing individuals! They have added so much to our success by inspiring us with their humor, strength courage and faith.

 

Many have offered to serve on our patient advocacy board, volunteer at area health fairs, and speak to local physicians, allied health professionals and support groups.

 

As with all small businesses, growth can present challenges…We chose to see these as opportunities to improve! As we continue to expand our services and programs, we are very confident in the skills, knowledge and unique addition to healthcare we offer our community.

 

These are just a few glimpses into what makes our facility unique and our staff so special…

 

“I have just completed several weeks of therapy.  This is my second such session during a three-year period.  My diagnosis is not considered critical but pain experienced significantly affects life quality and productivity.  The extraordinary therapists and staff were always available, empathetic and very helpful in every respect.  Of significant consequence in my treatment was the use of anodyne for a neuropathic disorder. It is my belief that the healing process without the use of anodyne would have been significantly compromised.”

S.S of Lee’s Summit Missouri

 

“I am very well satisfied with my treatment at Therapy Concepts.  The manual therapy and wrappings were excellent.  My ankles were always big and swelling and now, two months after my therapy ended, my ankles and feet are as small as when I was 50 years younger.  I am very pleased with their treatment at Therapy Concepts.”

Charles Mackey of Kansas City

 

“With patient care, understanding,knowledge and skill, the staff taught me how to care for my legs and guided the healing of the wound that would not heal—a miracle for me.  Thanks for a wonderful experience. I see people every day that I’d like to tell about you and send them. Thanks!

T. Dittrich, Jr. of Shawnee, Kansas

 

“All their employees are well trained.  The esprit de corps is fantastic! They all work together to see that the patient’s needs are taken care of.  I had a number of unrelated complications that slowed down the process and they took it all in stride. They do outstanding work led by excellent management. I feel fortunate to have been sent to them for treatment.”

W. Coleman of Overland Park, KS

 

“They gave my husband individual professional care beyond what we had experienced in other facilities. He had terminal cancer and we had basically been sent home with very little instruction or plan to manage very difficult complications of breast cancer. His tumors were infected and swelling far past what I could handle alone. He didn’t qualify for home health and we didn’t have hospice out in the area we live. They taught us patiently and made time for us whenever he could manage the strength to come in…even on weekends. I will never forget the kindness and marvelous care we both were given. I can't express how much it meant to our family.”

Mrs. Frank S.,  Warsaw, MO

 

“I was evaluated on a Friday and began treatment the following Monday.  I was always able to reach a real person by phone. Questions were answered quickly. The staff is professional, courteous, prompt and attentive.  Cooperation among staff members was obvious. I was treated for lymphedema and instructed in self care before I was discharged. I have chosen to return for monthly follow up care at my expense because I believe this treatment will not only lengthen my life but also improve its quality.  I have recommended this group to friends and strangers and will continue to do so.”

D. Kirklin of Leawood, Kansas

 

“I was treated exceptionally well.  All my questions were answered in the best way possible. The therapy was excellent and while my back will never be completely well, the exercises he gave me really help. I am pleased to recommend you to all my friends.”

Louise Garfinkle of Kansas City, MO

 

“A place that restores hope, a place that honestly cares about you and your condition(s), a warm and friendly family, a clean and organized clinic, a place that helps educate you about your condition, a place of “total” encouragement, a place that gives you back your life.”

Rev. Suzie Crocker of Kansas City, KS
