Medicare
Medicare has approved the Protonics Neuromuscular System for
reimbursement for all conditions (Low Back, Knee, Hip, Sciatica and others) as
long as a physician writes a prescription for Protonics.
Most of the large private insurance companies (such as Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, Liberty Mutual) will usually cover Protonics for patients with various conditions (for example, they may pay for Protonics for treating a knee condition but not for a low-back condition or vice-versa) as long as a physician writes a prescription for Protonics.
Other smaller insurance companies and HMO’s may or may not cover Protonics and will make reimbursement decisions on a patient-by-patient basis.
Private Insurance reimbursement for the Protonics System is dependent upon which insurance company and the type of coverage that the patient has.

Steps to Ordering through Private Insurance
1. Obtain a prescription from your primary physician or specialist.
2. Contact Inverse Technology Corporation (the parent company of Protonics) at 800-222-5778 to provide your insurance and Patient Information. ITC will check on your insurance coverage for the Protonics System.
3. After ITC finds out your insurance coverage they will contact you to let you know your coverage levels.
4. Order the Protonics using the 10-Day Free Trial Program (See Below).
5. Once you have received your Protonics System, Inverse will file all insurance claims for you at no charge to you as well as claims for any secondary insurance that you might carry. ITC will not accept assignment for the insurance reimbursement paid by your insurance company – This means that all payments for the Protonics made by your insurance company will be paid directly to you and not to ITC.
