The Odds are Stacked Against Independent Practitioners

Are you a physical therapy practice owner who is struggling to build your business? Are you surprised by the number of obstacles that keep getting in the way of the success you are working so hard to achieve? Without a doubt, this can be frustrating as most likely one of the reasons you opened your own practice was to create an opportunity to help as many patients as possible and to run your business the way you thought best. 

At Alliance Physical Therapy Partners, we know getting your practice up and running required a lot of patience and perseverance, which is why it must so frustrating to uncover so many roadblocks. However, the problems holding you back from growing your practice are probably not from anything you are doing wrong but rather stem from the difficulties associated with being an independent owner.  One prime example is the fact that practice owners have to frequently battle with insurance companies to receive reimbursement as healthcare regulations become more difficult to manage.    

Another problem that stands in the way of success for many independent practitioners is the trend of large hospital groups expanding their services to include physical therapy, which results in a decrease of outside physician referrals. To survive and grow, you know you must leverage direct marketing to attract new patients. Of course, this requires capital and expertise.

By joining the Alliance network, you gain access to a team of professionals with experience in acquisitions, compliance, technology, direct marketing and strategic growth specific to physical therapy practices.

Physical Therapy Practice Owners Exit Strategy Considerations

Many PT practice owners are at a point in their careers where they might be thinking about transitioning out of the business.   

If you are thinking about this topic you have probably considered these three options: 

1. Sell to an employee
2. Close up shop
3. Sell to a buyout group
