Home Health Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA)
About The Position
Suru provides outpatient occupational therapy in patients’ homes across Southern California and is seeking licensed COTAs to treat patients near where they live and work. The role involves treating 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 usually involve two to three visits per week for 12 weeks and may be renewed when continued therapy is appropriate. When a patient nearby needs visits, the Suru app notifies the COTA, who can choose whether to accept the patient and arrange visit times directly with them. Suru handles intake, insurance, evaluations, and billing. Routine visit notes are completed in the app by dictating, reviewing, and submitting them. Compensation is per completed visit, described as comparable to home health, with direct deposit to the worker’s bank account every week. The position is as a 1099 independent contractor. Onboarding requires providing a license, service area, availability, and desired rate in the Suru app or at app.gosuru.com. Once approved, the COTA can view available patients in their area.
