MSK Teletherapy Physical Therapist / PTA — Orange, CA
About The Position
PeteDME is seeking a licensed physical therapist or physical therapist assistant to provide teletherapy and remote therapeutic monitoring for patients in its Musculoskeletal Integrated Care program. The program combines knee and lumbar bracing with physical therapy, delivered through a network of in-home therapists. The role begins with six in-person brace fittings for patients from the therapist’s existing caseload. Each paid clinical visit includes intake, fitting, and follow-up, at a flat fee agreed in writing before the first patient. PeteDME provides a screening tool to help identify suitable patients and handles prescriptions, benefit verification, and paperwork. This is not a sales or referral role; therapists treat patients they already see. After completing the six fittings, therapists can receive teletherapy patient referrals from PeteDME. Teletherapy and monitoring are performed from home, on the therapist’s schedule, and are paid per visit and per call. The work is additional independent-contractor work alongside the therapist’s current job. PeteDME provides specialized orthopedic bracing training and certification, and AI-generated SOAP notes; no new EMR is required.
