Question 1

What's a next-gen PT exactly? Does that mean a new grad?

Accepted Answer

At CityPT, a next-gen PT isn't necessarily defined by years of experience, but rather by their approach to the profession. Here are some characteristics we look for in our next-gen PT partners:

Tech Savvy: They embrace technology to enhance patient care, like using telehealth and remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM).

Entrepreneurial: They're open to alternative practice models and proactively offer insights into new product development.

Evidence-Based: They apply the latest clinical research to prioritize patient outcomes and satisfaction over just meeting documentation requirements.

Community-Minded: They value building relationships within their communities to increase access to care and to create a thriving business.

Passionate About Innovation: They're keen to leverage technology to improve the PT profession and patient experience.

Continuous Learner: They understand the evolving healthcare landscape and are committed to continuous learning.

Question 2

How quickly can I begin seeing patients?

Accepted Answer

You can be ready to treat in as little as 2 weeks (yep, you read that right) depending on your location, availability for trainings, and successful completion of other onboarding tasks. Even if you'll be treating Medicare patients, we'll streamline credentialing to get you up and running fast.

Question 3

What's considered a full caseload?

Accepted Answer

We recognize that flexibility is key for our clinicians. This means finding a caseload that works for you while ensuring you can maximize earnings. On our platform, a full caseload is typically considered to be 4-5 visits a day. However, the ideal number can vary depending on your rates, preferences, scheduling needs, and your unique practice. We empower you to find the balance that best suits you and your patients.

Question 4

How much experience is required to be a City Starter?

Accepted Answer

We value passion and potential over a specific number of years in practice. Therapists of all experience levels are welcome – we offer dedicated mentorship programs to help you grow your business development skills. You should, however, have a very strong clinical foundation.

Equally important are clinicians who are community-minded and passionate about building strong connections with local businesses, organizations, and healthcare providers. These relationships not only benefit your practice but also expand access to quality care for the community.

Question 5

Are clinicians employees or independent contractors?

Accepted Answer

As a City Starter, you'll work as an independent contractor, building your own private practice while leveraging our powerful software & services platform, and proven practice model. You'll enjoy the freedom and flexibility to set your own schedule, choose your patient population, and determine your rates.

Question 6

I'm not that tech savvy. Can I still build my practice on your platform?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! We value passionate clinicians with a strong entrepreneurial spirit. While tech expertise isn't mandatory, a willingness to learn and embrace new technologies is key. CityPT provides a user-friendly platform with comprehensive training resources to help you get comfortable and confident using our tools.

Question 7

Would I still be a good fit if I only want to work remotely?

Accepted Answer

CityPT is an innovator in virtual physical therapy, and our platform is designed to offer therapists a flexible alternative to in-person care.

However, to build a thriving private practice, we also believe in the benefits of an omni-channel approach. This means potentially offering some in-person services alongside virtual care to best serve your patients' needs and build strong community connections.

While our model emphasizes a hyper-local presence, we're always open to discussing unique situations. We encourage you to apply, and we can discuss how your goals and our approach can potentially align.

Question 8

I eventually want to open a brick-and-mortar clinic location? Is that okay?

Accepted Answer

Of course, your dreams are our ambition too. The City platform is designed to grow with you, whether you envision a thriving virtual practice or a future brick-and-mortar location. We'll support you every step of the way, offering resources and guidance to help you seamlessly integrate your physical clinic with your digital presence.

Question 9

How much can I expect to earn as a City Starter?

Accepted Answer

The City platform empowers you to realize your ideal role as a healthcare provider. But, we won't sugarcoat it: your success will depend upon your level of dedication. The more you leverage our platform features, build strong client and community relationships, and strategically set your rates, the more you'll flourish.

CityPT isn't just a platform, it's your springboard. We offer resources and workshops to help you develop essential business and marketing skills, alongside tools that streamline your practice and showcase your expertise. It's all about effort meeting opportunity. Are you ready to put in the work to shape your future?

Question 10

Is CityPT a franchise?

Accepted Answer

CityPT is not a franchise. We're more like a business-in-a-box. We provide the tech infrastructure, experience design, clinical workflows, and brand foundation to jump start your own hybrid PT practice.

But unlike a franchise, you're not locked into a rigid mold. CityPT empowers you to build your own niche brand atop our established platform. Think of it as a toolkit – you leverage our resources and strong brand identity, then tailor it to your unique style and specialties as you grow. It's the perfect balance of support and independence to launch your dream career.
