Physical Therapists Against Physician Owned Physical Therapy Services

The Petition

" Recognizing the incongruity of POPTS and APTA's/CPTA's Vision 2020 that

embraces the autonomous practice of doctorally prepared professionals, the

inherent conflicts of interest existing within POPTS, the loss of patient's

right to choice of provider, and the increased cost to society identified

resulting from POPTS, the APTA and CPTA have reaffirmed their decades-long

opposition to physician-owned physical therapy services. APTA and CPTA

support legislative and regulatory measures at the state and federal levels

to ban physician ownership of physical therapy services. "

- Position on Physician-Owned Physical Therapy Services (POPTS) January

2005, APTA.

We ask that you consider signing this petition to demonstrate your support

for Vision 2020 as well as your opposition to physician owned physical

therapy practices.
