Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Do I need to have a medical report/referral/diagnosis to have an evaluation?
It is not necessary. Occupational Therapy is an autonomous discipline and Occupational Therapists are properly trained to identify dysfunctions in a person's occupational performance and/or skill deficits and/or barriers in a client's environment.
Are Occupational Therapy sessions being covered by the Greek National Organization for the Provision of Health Services (EOPYY)?
If you have a medical report with prescribed Occupational Therapy sessions, in addition to the service rendered receipt, we can also provide you with a written affirmation for the provision of services, along with the other necessary documentation in order for you to submit a claim for reimbursement of special education therapeutic services to your insurance provider.
