What is a Comprehensive outpatient rehabilitation facility?

A Comprehensive Outpatient Rehabilitation Facility (CORF) is a healthcare facility that provides outpatient rehabilitation services for patients who need ongoing care and support following an illness, injury, or surgery. CORF's are licensed by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and are designed to provide coordinated, multidisciplinary rehabilitation services to patients in an outpatient setting. They offer a range of therapeutic services, including physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and other specialized services.

CORFs provide a comprehensive approach to rehabilitation that focuses on improving the patient's physical, emotional, and cognitive function, as well as promoting overall wellness and independence. They typically offer personalized treatment plans that are tailored to each patient's unique needs and goals.

Patients may be referred to a CORF by their primary care physician or a specialist. Treatment is usually covered by Medicare or other insurance plans. CORFs can be standalone facilities or part of a larger healthcare system, and they may also work closely with other healthcare providers, such as hospitals or skilled nursing facilities, to provide coordinated care to patients throughout the rehabilitation process.
