You can apply for outpatient health care rehabilitation services without a referral from a doctor.

A healthcare professional will assess your situation and draw up a rehabilitation plan with you. The starting point for rehabilitation is that when your functional ability has changed due to an illness or disability, we will support your functional ability and independence by means of rehabilitation.
