MSK Teletherapy Physical Therapist / PTA — New York, NY
About The Position
PeteDME is seeking a physical therapist or physical therapist assistant to provide teletherapy for its musculoskeletal integrated-care patients. 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 by completing six in-person brace fittings for patients from their own current caseload. Each paid clinical visit includes intake, fitting, and follow-up, with a flat fee agreed in writing before the first patient. PeteDME provides a screening tool to identify candidates among the therapist’s existing 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. This additional work is performed from home on the therapist’s schedule as an independent contractor. 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.

- Hold an active physical therapist or physical therapist assistant license in the state where practicing.
