Who pays you, and how, for your work as a physical therapist?
How health care is funded has implications for the way you work, and for the care that you can provide for patients. Societies all around the world are grappling with complex decisions about health care and how it is funded. Even more so as changing populations place different demands on health care systems, and as the health work force changes.
Today, Dr Chris Bise (Assistant Professor, University of Pittsburgh) explains the changing face of health care funding, and what it means for the physical therapist. Chris has 25 years of experience as a physical therapist and health system analyst who studies value-based health care and physical therapy practice - trying to find better ways of funding health care to deliver outcomes that satisfy patients, clinicians and payers.
