Job summary

Suru Physical Therapy Inc. in Southern California is seeking licensed PTAs to treat home health patients on their own schedule.

You’ll handle follow-up visits in patients' homes with oversight from a licensed PT who handles evaluations and is available for questions. Plans of care typically involve 2–3 visits per week for around 12 weeks and can be renewed when continued therapy is appropriate, so you may maintain patients longer than a typical home health episode.

Qualifications

• Active California PTA license required.
• Home health experience preferred.
• Local business license not required to clerical ownership.
• Work as a 1099 independent contractor.

Responsibilities

• Treat follow-up visits in the patient's home under supervision of a PT.
• Schedule visits by phone with patients via the Suru app.
• Keep notes via the app; Suru handles intake, billing and evaluation.
• Plans of care are 2–3 visits per week for ~12 weeks and may be renewed.

Job description

Treat home health patients on your schedule, paid per visit, every week.

Suru provides outpatient physical therapy in patients' homes across Southern California. We're looking for licensed PTAs to treat Suru patients near where they live and work.

What the work looks like

• You treat follow-up visits in the patient's home. A licensed physical therapist completes the evaluation and plan of care and is available for your questions.
• Plans of care are usually 2-3 visits per week for 12 weeks, and are often renewed when continued therapy is appropriate, so you keep patients longer than a typical home health episode.
• When a patient near you needs visits, the Suru app notifies you. You choose which patients to accept and set visit times directly with the patient.
• Suru handles intake, insurance, the evaluation, and billing.
• Routine visit notes take about a minute: dictate by voice, review, and submit in the app.

Pay

• Paid per completed visit, comparable to home health.
• Direct deposit to your bank every week.

Requirements

• Active California PTA license
• Home health experience preferred
• A local business license (an LLC is not required)
• Work as a 1099 independent contractor
