Doc Danny shares a live clip from his CSM presentation on how cash-based PT has evolved over the last decade and what trends will shape the next decade. He breaks down why "great things start in little rooms," how insurance changes have made cash care more viable, and why recurring revenue, longevity, and AI will define the future.
