MSK Teletherapy Physical Therapist / PTA — La Canada Flintridge, CA

PeteHealth•La Cañada Flintridge, CA

2d•Remote

About The Position

Treat PeteDME’s 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 joining the remote caseload first complete six in-person brace fittings with patients from their existing caseload. Each paid fitting visit includes intake, fitting, and follow-up, for a flat fee agreed in writing before the first patient. PeteDME provides a screening tool to identify suitable patients and handles prescriptions, benefit verification, and paperwork. This is not a sales role, and therapists are not asked to make referrals. After completing six fittings, therapists begin receiving teletherapy patient referrals from PeteDME. The remote work is performed from home, on the therapist’s schedule, and is paid per visit and per call. This is additional independent-contractor work alongside the therapist’s current job.
