Onero exercise and Medicare
Has anyone been able to get Medicare coverage for the Onero exercise program and if so, how did you do it? Onero is the only exercise program based on the LIFTMOR clinical trial shown to increase BMD.

I’m in New York. I had aPT appointment today, and asked how the ONERO program is billed. It is almost entirely covered by Medicare. There is only a small amount that is not covered.(under $10).
I know your PT is certified as a physical therapist. She is licensed. The ONERO program requires a PT to be certified in the ONERO program. I would say she is not ONERO CERTIFIED. If she were, there would be no problem with Medicare. The program is new with few certified physical therapist. Judging by how popular the program is, she may want to look into becoming certified.
BTW my endocrinologist wanted to put me on Evenity also.
@molly4619 fantastic. My PT is Onero certified! Would it be possible for you to forward your PTs name and phone number as Wendy Green (mine) would like to touch base with her. She currently teaches 4 classes with 8 students in each and a lot of us are on Medicare. I really appreciate your help,
@cobb another thing I learned is that they don’t Bill for physical therapy. They Bill only for ONERO. That may be her problem. She really should check with whoever certified her for the correct codes. I also would think she has some type of certification number showing she is indeed certified.
@molly4619 I am in Staten Island and looking for an ONERO program. Can you tell me where you access it? Thanks in advance.
@cobb I'm looking for ONERO certified PT in NYC area. Can you tell me where you found one? Thx!
@cobb Hi I accidentally replied twice to Molly. I was trying to ask you where you found your Onero PT.
@oakmary2 Just google ONERO certified physical therapy in wherever you’re looking. You have to be careful because the search pulls up different PT offices. Scroll through and you’ll find the ONERO certified one. The program is new, so there aren’t that many.
