Indiana Enacts Direct Access
On May 2, 2013, Indiana Governor Mike Pence signed HB 1034 into law. HB 1034 provides Indiana residents direct access to evaluation and treatment by a physical therapist (PT) without a physician referral. The law, which will take effect on July 1, allows for evaluation and up to 24 days of treatment without a referral but continues to require a referral for spinal manipulation and sharp debridement.
