PT as Quarterback, with Dr. Marc Gruner, DO, MBA, RMSK

Why your best play is calling the shots, not running them allAlex and I recently talked about the physical therapist income floor and ceiling. And in this episode, we talk with Dr. Marc Gruner, who offers a framework for a solution to that seemingly impenetrable ceiling.Here's the punchline. The income ceiling in PT isn't about reimbursement rates. It's about your practice model.Dr. Gruner created the RTM codes, which are the first new codes for PT in 20 years. Now we can absolutely make the strong argument that the PT billing codes don't adequately reimburse therapists for the value we create, and that the income ceiling should not be tens of thousands below providers who don't have doctoral degrees as the required minimum educational level. But in this episode, Dr. Gruner explains why team-based care and value-based arrangements are the only path to sustainable income growth while providing access to care to our communities. We talk about RTM in this episode, and about how RTM wasn't designed as simply another billing code. It's infrastructure for the glide path to value-based care for physical therapists.So tune in to hear much more from Dr. Gruner, a true physician champion for the physical therapy profession.
