Community Health & Dental Care (CHDC) is excited to now offer cutting-edge Physical Therapy services at its Barto health center at 1315 Route 100 North in Barto, PA.

Unlike most physical therapy offices, CHDC accepts Medicaid and offers health care discounts to those who qualify.

CHDC also accepts Medicare and most commercial insurance plans such as UPMC, Health Partners, Aetna Better Health, Keystone First, and AmeriHealth.

If transportation is a barrier, CHDC also provides free transportation with convenient stops in surrounding areas to ensure patients can get to their appointments.

The Physical Therapy suite at Barto is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment including cutting-edge technology with MR4 Laserstim. “The MR4 is the latest technology that uses cold lasers to promote the natural healing in one’s body via photobiomodulation – an odd word term that results in bruises and swelling to diminish in a few days, pain to be lessened or even vanished, and neuropathy to be slowed or reversed.” says physical therapist, Matthew Musket, DPT. “It’s great technology without side effects. A tremendous additive to our personalized physical therapy plan of care for all our clients’ functional ailments.”

Additional physical therapy services offered now at the Barto location include therapeutic exercises that are individually prescribed to address functional impairments/medical conditions, manual therapy, modalities to decrease pain without opioids or medicines and retain movement patterns, and compassionate education and support to manage disabilities during the rehabilitation process.

Patients, of all ages, can be seen pre/post-operative or for sports medicine including those with balance disorders or running ailments. Patients can receive prosthetic training and education, pre/postpartum education and rehabilitation, as well as treatment for Temporal Mandibular Dysfunction (“TMJ Concerns”).

CHDC opened the Barto health center back in September 2020 offering medical and dental services.

Partially funded from a grant from the Pennsylvania Department of Health in 2020, the 3,854 square feet was renovated to offer state-of-the-art equipment providing quality medical, dental and integrated behavioral health services for all ages.

CHDC provides medical, dental, OBGYN, vision, podiatry, physical therapy, medication assistance therapy (MAT), integrated behavioral health, care and case management, and free transportation to and from all CHDC health center locations in Pottstown and Barto.

We accept most major Commercial, Medicare, and Medicare supplement plans, Fee for Service Medicaid and Managed Care Medicaid plans and provide a health care discount for eligible uninsured and underinsured patients.

For qualified patients receiving a 100% healthcare discount, the nominal fee for a medical/behavioral health/vision visit is $20, $35 for a dental visit, and $5 for a prescription! CHDC can offer the health care discount because we receive annual funding from our Federal partner, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) since 2012 as a designated Federally Qualified Health Center.
