My wife, who is also a PT, is contracted out by our company to " cover "

several facilities for another organization that specializes in

providing therapy services through contracts with many facilities. I

believe that her contract may be considered 'PRN' so that she can be

pulled into one of our own facilities when needed, but I am sure that we

are reimbursed through an hourly rate.....at another one of our

contracted facilities, our company is reimbursed at an hourly rate for

all inpatient (acute care, swing bed, and nursing home)treatment time

AND for any " down " time during the day (documentation or any other

non-billable time in facility), and are reimbursed per unit of billable

services provided in our on-site outpatient clinic. Hope this

helps....if not, I can put you in contact with my administrator that

deals with all the details of our contract work. THANKS

Hello Group

Is anyone out there who is providing therapy services (PT,OT,ST) on a

contractual basis to an SNF willing to share how they are paid for these

services from the SNF? Is there a standard way to do this? We are paid

by

the SNF a percentage of the rehab. Rug. We are considering updating our

contract and just wondered what others in this situation are doing.

We charge the nursing home at am hourly rate.

For NH that we travel to, we charge the hourly rate for drive time plus

mileage reimbursement. As they want our time to be productive in their

facility, they usually have paperwork, help, and the patients ready when

we come.

Feel free to email me directly if you have any further questions.
