Question/Topic
UMP Policy Regarding Licensed Physical Therapist Assistants (LPTA)
Answer/Article

UMP does not credential or contract directly with LPTAs. Services by this provider type must be supervised by a registered and licensed physical therapist. The supervising physical therapist must submit claims to UMP for LPTA services; the LPTA cannot submit claims directly. UMP pays for covered services according to the network status of the supervising physical therapist.
