Home Health Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA)
About The Position
Suru provides outpatient physical therapy in patients’ homes across Southern California. The Physical Therapist Assistant treats follow-up visits in patients’ homes. A licensed physical 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, allowing assistants to continue working with patients beyond a typical home health episode. When a patient nearby needs visits, the Suru app notifies the assistant. Assistants choose which patients to accept and set visit times directly with patients. Suru handles intake, insurance, evaluation, and billing. Routine visit notes are completed in the app by voice dictation, review, and submission, and take about a minute. The role is paid per completed visit, with direct deposit to the assistant’s bank account every week. It is performed as a 1099 independent contractor. To get started, applicants apply and complete onboarding in the Suru app or at app.gosuru.com, providing their license, service area, availability, and desired rate. Once approved, they can see available patients in their area.
