Home Health Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA)

Suru In-Home Physical Therapy•Anaheim, CA

6d•$60 - $75•Onsite

About The Position

Suru provides outpatient occupational therapy in patients’ homes across Southern California and is seeking licensed Certified Occupational Therapy Assistants (COTAs) to treat patients near where they live and work. The role involves providing follow-up visits in patients’ homes. A licensed occupational therapist completes each evaluation and plan of care and is available to answer questions. Plans of care typically involve two to three visits per week for 12 weeks and may be renewed when continued therapy is appropriate. Suru’s app notifies the contractor when a nearby patient needs visits; the contractor chooses which patients to accept and schedules visit times directly with patients. Suru handles intake, insurance, evaluations, and billing. Routine visit notes are completed in the app by voice dictation, review, and submission, and take about a minute. Compensation is per completed visit, comparable to home health, with direct deposit every week. The position is performed as a 1099 independent contractor. To begin, applicants apply and complete onboarding in the Suru app or at app.gosuru.com, providing their license, service area, availability, and desired rate. After approval, available patients in the contractor’s area are shown.
