Telehealth for Physical Therapy

Snowstorms, childcare conflicts, post-op mobility issues—life throws plenty of barriers between patients and in-person visits. Virtual care flips those obstacles into opportunities. PtEverywhere® bakes a HIPAA-secure, browser-based video platform directly into your scheduler, EMR, and patient portal, so every canceled slot can pivot to a billable session and every rural athlete can access world-class rehab without a two-hour drive.

Why modern telehealth matters in 2025

Telehealth is no longer a pandemic stop-gap. CMS permanently approved audio-only periodic assessments for therapy services beginning January 1, 2025, proof that virtual care is here to stay. Meanwhile, Congress extended the broader Medicare telehealth flexibilities through September 30, 2025, allowing patients to receive care from home regardless of geography and keeping PTs on the list of eligible distant-site providers.

Clinical outcomes mirror that policy momentum: a 2024 systematic review showed attendance rates 8 % higher and home-exercise adherence 9 % higher for patients using telerehabilitation than those in traditional care alone. Add the Physical Therapy Licensure Compact (now active in 34+ states) and cross-state delivery has never been easier for qualified clinicians.

Bottom line: virtual visits expand access, smooth revenue during disruptions, and give forward-thinking clinics an edge in patient experience.

How PtEverywhere makes virtual visits friction-free

One-click video visits

No Zoom links to copy, no plug-ins to install. Patients open their portal or tap a push notification; the encrypted video room launches in any modern browser or inside our iOS/Android app. Built-in screen share lets you demo HEP videos or annotate movement cues, while on-screen timers keep you compliant with timed CPT codes.

Integrated charting & instant billing

Document directly beside the video feed, then hit Sign—SOAP note, ICD-10/CPT codes, and telehealth modifiers flow straight to billing. The charge posts to the ledger or superbill without a second login.

Multi-state compliance toolkit

PtEverywhere automatically records patient location at session start, captures digital consent, and stores both in the encounter log, critical for compact and non-compact states alike. Need an ABN or Medicare Telehealth Consent PDF? Add it to your intake packet once; the system prompts patients only when payer rules require it.

Built-in outcome measures & HEP launchpad

Push LEFS, PSFS, or custom surveys before the call; scores pull into the note in real time. Post-session, assign video-rich HEP with automated reminders, keeping the gains rolling between virtual and onsite care.

Enterprise-grade security without enterprise bloat

End-to-end encryption meets HIPAA and GDPR standards. Role-based permissions separate therapists from billers, and every pixel of video is peer-to-peer: nothing routes through third-party servers.

Use-case snapshots

Practice stage Key headaches How PtEverywhere helps
Rural outreach Patients live hours away Secure video removes travel barriers and supports high-touch care plans.
Post-operative follow-up Mobility restrictions limit clinic trips Quick virtual check-ins detect red flags early and adjust HEP.
Snow-day backup plan Weather cancels onsite schedule Convert appointments to telehealth in two clicks; calendar and reminders update automatically.

Beyond convenience: measurable ROI

Because video visits live inside PtEverywhere’s all-in-one ecosystem, every virtual encounter feeds analytics that owners can act on:

  • Fill-rate vs. cancellation graph shows how often telehealth rescued lost slots.
  • First-pass denial rate by modifier reveals payer issues before they snowball.
  • Average distance saved per patient a marketing-friendly stat that wins referrals.

Clinics that switch on telehealth often see same-day cancellation capture rise by 15–20 % and total visit volume increase 8–12 % within the first quarter.
