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 the evaluation and plan of care and is available to answer questions. Plans of care are usually 2–3 visits per week for 12 weeks and are often renewed when continued therapy is appropriate. When a patient nearby needs visits, the Suru app notifies the COTA. The COTA chooses which patients to accept and schedules visit times directly with patients. Suru handles intake, insurance, evaluation, and billing. Routine visit notes are completed in the app by dictating, reviewing, and submitting them. Pay is per completed visit, comparable to home health, with direct deposit every week.
