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

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
