MSK Teletherapy Physical Therapist / PTA — Needham Heights, MA
About The Position
Treat PeteDME’s musculoskeletal integrated-care patients remotely from home. The program combines knee and lumbar bracing with physical therapy and remote therapeutic monitoring, delivered through a network of in-home therapists. Teletherapy visits and monitoring calls are paid per visit and per call. Therapists begin with six in-person brace fittings for patients from their existing caseload. Each paid clinical fitting includes intake, fitting, and follow-up, for 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 six fittings, therapists can receive teletherapy patient referrals from PeteDME. The work is performed from home, on the therapist’s schedule, as additional independent-contractor work alongside their current job. The role includes free specialized orthopedic-bracing training and certification, and AI-generated SOAP notes, with no new EMR to learn. Fees are fixed in advance and compensation does not depend on volume or referrals.
