We staff DMV outpatient PT clinics with vetted, credentialed PTs and PTAs — PRN/per-diem coverage and 13-week contracts available, plus permanent placements with a 90-day guarantee.
DMV-market vacancy benchmarks reflect the daily outpatient billable production lost when each role sits empty in an average DMV-area outpatient PT clinic:
Physical Therapist · ~$1,200/day — net outpatient billable production per PT (10–12 visits/day at typical DMV reimbursement).
Physical Therapist Assistant · ~$700/day — net outpatient billable production per PTA, working under PT supervision.
Speech-Language Pathologist · ~$1,000/day — net outpatient billable production per SLP (8–10 sessions/day at typical DMV reimbursement for evaluation and treatment codes).
Office Manager · ~$500/day — based on ~15% of PT clinical time pulled to admin coverage plus billing/auth delays and scheduling drag in a 2–3 PT clinic.
Front Desk · ~$350/day — missed new-patient calls, no-shows from poor schedule control, and insurance verification delays at the point of intake.
Industry context: Average time-to-fill for outpatient PT/PTA roles in the DMV is 3 to 6 months (APTA 2024 Hiring Challenges Report). Roughly 13% of outpatient PT/PTA positions nationally are currently unfilled. Gallup (2024) puts the cost of a bad hire at 0.5–2× annual salary — which is why our placement guarantees are 90 days.
