MET 101 Tip #42 - Medical Exercise Specialists Publish Your Fees!!
MET 101 Tip #42: Be Transparent—Publish Your Rates and Communicate with Confidence - Clients Don't Like Secrets!!
In Tip #42 of the MET 101 series, Dr. Mike emphasizes a vital business principle for MedExPROs: be upfront about your pricing. Far too many professionals hide their rates or hesitate to discuss them. But if you're offering high-value, outcome-driven medical exercise services, there's no reason to keep your pricing under wraps.
Dr. Mike urges every MedExPRO and ME facility to publish their service fees openly. Sharing your pricing on your website or brochures communicates professionalism, confidence, and transparency. Practitioners like Rich Ga in Victoria and Jason Hodge in Houston already lead by example—publishing fees for assessments, sessions, and programs with great success.
Physicians don’t need a printed fee sheet, but when speaking with them, you must be able to clearly explain what you charge and whether your services are reimbursable. When a doctor asks, “Does insurance cover this?”, it’s not a challenge—it’s a sign they want to protect their patients from surprise out-of-pocket costs. Dr. Mike advises honesty: If you’re not billing insurance directly, say so—but let the physician know you provide invoices and documentation so the client can submit for reimbursement themselves.
Importantly, Dr. Mike reminds us that Medicare and Medicaid currently do not reimburse for medical exercise training, but third-party carriers, workers’ comp, and personal injury cases often do. If you're seeking help with billing and documentation, the Cracking the Code program is available through Dr. Mike’s team.
