MSK Teletherapy Physical Therapist / PTA — Tracy, 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 MSK Integrated Care program. The program combines knee and lumbar bracing with physical therapy, delivered through a network of in-home therapists. The role is additional, independent-contractor work that can be performed from home alongside the therapist’s current job, on the therapist’s schedule. Remote visits and monitoring are paid per visit and per call. Before receiving teletherapy referrals from PeteDME, therapists complete six paid in-person brace fittings with patients from their own current caseload. Each fitting includes intake, fitting, and follow-up, and is paid at a flat fee agreed in writing before the first patient. PeteDME supplies a screening tool to identify candidates among existing patients and handles prescriptions, benefit verification, and paperwork. The position is not a sales role, and therapists are not asked to make referrals. PeteDME provides specialized orthopedic bracing training and certification, as well as AI-generated SOAP notes. Applicants complete a short questionnaire about their license, practice setting, and caseload, and acknowledge that teletherapy referrals begin after six fittings. A clinical onboarding specialist will contact applicants within one business day. AI tools may support parts of the hiring process, but final hiring decisions are made by humans.
