Which diagnostics fit a rehabilitation practice?
WAVi brain assessment and TM-Flow autonomic, sudomotor, and vascular testing. WAVi is FDA 510(k) cleared (K213900) to aid in diagnosis, not to diagnose any condition on its own; TM-Flow is built on three FDA 510(k)-cleared modules. Both are ordered when clinically indicated on the individual patient, with a board-certified neurologist report layer through BMTG. The Hue Light BAHI suite is a separate wellness offering under FDA General Wellness, cash pay.
Is rehabilitation testing covered?
Coverage is decided by your payer on the documented indication. WAVi is billed under the standard codes for the services performed; the physician's cognitive assessment visit is billed separately when performed. TM-Flow coding is confirmed with your own certified coder before the first claim; TITN recommends no code, and California's contractor publishes no autonomic policy. Ask us for the coverage checklist and confirm every code with your certified coder.
Can EEG-based cognitive assessment track recovery after a brain injury?
WAVi is used for a baseline and a retest, so the clinician can compare a patient's quantified EEG and event-related potential data against that patient's own earlier study. That tracks measured change over time. It is cleared to aid in diagnosis, which means it supports the clinician's process; it is not a standalone determination that a patient has recovered, and it does not replace symptom assessment or functional testing.
What does aids in diagnosis mean for an FDA 510(k)-cleared EEG device?
It means the device's data supports the clinician's diagnostic process rather than producing a diagnosis on its own. WAVi's cleared indication is the acquisition, display, and storage of a patient's brain electrical activity, including EEG and event-related potentials, to aid in diagnosis. The treating clinician interprets the findings in the context of the history, examination, and other testing, and makes the call.
How does TM-Flow fit into a rehab plan?
TM-Flow captures autonomic, sudomotor, and ankle-brachial signals noninvasively in about ten minutes, which makes it repeatable across a program when serial testing is clinically indicated. It documents objective data for the chart; it is not a treatment and it does not diagnose. Heart-rate variability measurement carries known standardization limits, so findings are read as one input alongside the clinical picture.
Does insurance cover repeat testing to track progress?
Coverage is decided by your payer on the documented indication, and repeat or serial testing is judged the same way as the first study: on the documented medical necessity for that patient at that time. WAVi is billed under the standard codes for the services performed. Confirm every code and every repeat interval with your own certified coder and payer contract.
Who interprets the reports generated in a PM&R clinic?
A board-certified neurologist interprets and signs the report through BMTG, delivered to the ordering provider through a HIPAA portal, with the Cognitive Function Report inside 7 business days. The in-office device captures the data; it does not generate the clinical interpretation. Credentials, including board certification and license number, are on file and available on request.
Is the Hue Light recovery suite an evidence-based rehab treatment?
No. The four Hue Light BAHI devices, photobiomodulation, molecular hydrogen, hyperbaric, and whole-body vibration, are positioned under the FDA General Wellness policy for low-risk products. They are not FDA cleared, they are cash pay, and they are not for the diagnosis, treatment, cure, or prevention of any disease. They sit alongside the care plan as a wellness layer, not as therapy for a named condition.
