MSK Teletherapy Physical Therapist / PTA — Palmdale, CA
About The Position
PeteDME is seeking a licensed physical therapist or physical therapist assistant to treat MSK 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. Remote visits and monitoring are paid per visit and per call. Therapists begin with six paid in-person brace fittings for patients from their own current caseload. Each 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 potential candidates among patients the therapist already sees, 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 may receive teletherapy patient referrals from PeteDME. This work is performed from home on the therapist’s schedule and paid per visit and per call. The role is additional independent-contractor work alongside the therapist’s current job. PeteDME provides specialized orthopedic bracing training and certification, as well as AI-generated SOAP notes, with no new EMR required.
