Looking to connect with healthcare private practice owners on here. If you help run/operate or own a healthcare private practice clinic, let me know you’re here and comment with what field you work in.
What else can be done?

Patient requires public transportation, which consistently cancels or drops off 30-75 min late for appointments.

👉 No internet for telehealth
👉 No system available to double book patient if they show up late👉Mobile therapist not always available
👉needs supervision w/therex

Love that line.
You aren’t doing patient centered care if you lump patients into groups of 2-4 without asking/offering individual/1:1 care.

It’s called profit maximizing care.

And it’s rampant in the PT world.
#MedSky looking for people to connect with who are:

Creatively finding ways to work with more people who have Medicaid/uninsured

Creating solutions to transportation issues

Making sliding scale/probono visits possible through FORprofit businesses.

Let’s compare notes and get better at this!

Our team works hard to make sure people who are under/uninsured get access to the care they need.

If you want to discuss improving access to health for these populations, follow me.

Thanks for the kind words @sandyhiltonpt.bsky.social
