Checklist: Find the Best Short Term Rehab Options for Your Situation

Short term rehab programs are designed to assist people in their recovery and rehabilitation after a medical event, such as surgery, stroke, heart attack or any other cardiac events, serious injuries or prolonged illness.  

Are you prepared to choose which short term rehabilitation course you will follow to get you back on your feet as soon as possible? 

Many people mistakenly assume the physician or facility where the procedure is done will control where and how short term rehab care will take place. Instead, you will be asked by your specific care team. 

As you make this decision, you’ll want to think about the following questions: 

• Do you know how your insurance benefits impact your options? 

• Do you know the other variables that determine where and how your short term rehab needs can be addressed? 
• Have you evaluated each of your options to make a fully informed decision for your well-being? 
• Have you evaluated the differences between inpatient and outpatient services? 

Don’t get caught by surprise. Download our free checklist to make sure you’re prepared and can identify the best option.
