Things that will have a big impact on all private practice owners.
The State of Private Practice for Physical Therapy Marketing
Medicare reimbursement cuts and Obamacare are going to have a big impact in the way we see, and treat patients.
The way practices are going to be subject to audits is also going to be overhauled, as are the documentation guidelines and requirements to remain compliance.
As CMS enforces strict requirements for documentation, PQRS requirements and Functional Limitation G code reporting, the other payers are expected to follow

As a provider, you need to know what lies ahead, and continue to market your practice at the same time. You need to keep growing, because if you aren’t growing, you are ‘flat lining’. Flat lining is a pre-cursor to failure, and one you must identify and take quick corrective action on.

The category you fall into and the steps you take are going to play a big role in your successful physical therapy business private practice.
The big question is:
