Are pelvic floor therapy sessions covered for dyspareunia?
NHS provides pelvic floor therapy for dyspareunia when referred by a GP or specialist. Private insurance coverage varies and may require pre-authorisation for physiotherapy sessions.
Detailed Medical Explanation
On the NHS, pelvic health physiotherapy is free after a referral, but waiting times can be long. Private insurers may cover sessions if they are medically necessary and prescribed. Always check policy requirements, as some plans limit the number of covered visits or need pre-authorisation. NHS: Physiotherapy Services.
Clinical Context
Documentation from a specialist or GP may be required for insurance coverage of pelvic physiotherapy.
Evidence-Based Approaches
