About The Position

PeteDME is seeking a physical therapist or physical therapist assistant to treat its musculoskeletal Integrated Care patients through a home-based teletherapy program. 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 existing caseload. Each fitting includes intake, fitting, and follow-up, with 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. After the six fittings, therapists may receive teletherapy referrals from PeteDME and work from home on their own schedule. The role is additional independent-contractor work alongside the therapist’s current job, not a sales or referral role. Training and certification in orthopedic bracing are provided, along with AI-generated SOAP notes.
