MSK Teletherapy Physical Therapist / PTA — Needham, MA
About The Position
PeteDME is seeking a licensed physical therapist or physical therapist assistant to treat patients in its MSK Integrated Care program. The program combines knee and lumbar bracing with physical therapy and remote therapeutic monitoring, delivered through a network of in-home therapists. The role involves paid in-person brace fittings for patients from the therapist’s existing caseload, followed by teletherapy visits and monitoring for PeteDME patients. Remote work is performed from home and scheduled by the therapist. Compensation is per visit and per call, with flat fitting fees agreed in writing before the first patient and fixed in advance. The work is additional independent-contractor work alongside the therapist’s current job, not a sales or referral role. Therapists begin with six in-person brace fittings for patients from their own current caseload. Each paid clinical fitting includes intake, fitting, and follow-up. After completing the six fittings, teletherapy patient referrals from PeteDME begin. PeteDME provides a screening tool and handles prescriptions, benefit verification, and paperwork. Specialized orthopedic bracing training and certification are provided, along with AI-generated SOAP notes; no new EMR is required.
