PT's went to school for 7 years and have a Dr in physical therapy degree, OT & ST for 6 and have a masters.
A sampling of the medicaid reimbursement rate for pediatric 1 on 1 therapy:
MO - $12/15 min unit
Ga - $62 per visit (min 45 min required)
PA - $13/15 min unit
NJ - $35 per visit
NC $66 per vsit
Maine - $12.50 per 15 min
CT $15 / 15 min unit
AR - $22 / 15 min unit and hasn't changed for over 12 years
From that you have to pay for your rent, equipment, EMR program, training CEUs, utilities, front office employees
That's less than you pay your plumber.
Mo has very few therapist that provide serices for Medicaid, we looked into it, could afford to lose $10 per visit.
