How Physical Therapists Can Lead in Value-Based Care – Interview with Dr. Dana Strauss
In this episode, Jerry Durham welcomes back Dr. Dana Strauss, an expert in physical therapy and public policy, to dive deep into the evolution and future of value-based care. Dana shares her insights on how physical therapists can play a pivotal role in this healthcare model, emphasizing the potential for PTs to influence patient outcomes and reduce costs by integrating with advanced primary care teams.
They discuss the shift from traditional fee-for-service models to patient-centered, outcome-based care, and how this transition empowers physical therapists to practice at the top of their scope, build trust with patients, and drive impactful change in healthcare.
Together, Jerry and Dana explore the possibilities for PTs to seize new opportunities, reduce high-cost interventions, and create meaningful, cost-effective patient care.
