  • Manage your own schedule and geographic territory

Why You'll Love This Position

  • One patient at a time-no overlapping appointments

  • Competitive per-visit compensation

  • Minimal administrative burden with dedicated billing and insurance support

  • Modern EMR with integrated scheduling and documentation

  • Independent practice with the support of an experienced clinical and administrative team

Qualifications

  • Current Occupational Therapist license in the state of practice

  • Valid driver's license and reliable transportation

  • Strong communication and time management skills
