About the Role

ION PT Network is seeking an experienced Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) or Occupational Therapist Assistant (OTA) to join our team in a fully remote, non–patient-facing role.

This is not an entry-level position. We are looking for clinicians who can manage a high-volume caseload, communicate across multiple stakeholders, and apply clinical judgment in a fast-paced, task-driven environment.

As a Clinician Case Owner, you will take full ownership of therapy cases from initiation through completion—ensuring coordination, compliance, and strong outcomes for injured workers. This role regularly involves communication with diverse patient populations, and bilingual (English/Spanish) candidates are highly valued.

What You’ll Do

• Independently manage a caseload of approximately 150 active therapy cases
• Coordinate care with providers, adjusters, and nurse case managers
• Monitor treatment progress, attendance, and compliance
• Provide consistent updates and maintain clear documentation
• Partner with internal clinicians for documentation and peer review
• Ensure timely progression and resolution of each case

Who This Role Is For

This role is best suited for clinicians who:

• Thrive in a high-volume, structured environment
• Have strong organizational skills and attention to detail
• Are confident communicating with multiple stakeholders
• Prefer a non–patient-facing, administrative clinical role
• Take ownership and accountability for outcomes

Minimum Qualifications (Required to Apply)

• Active PTA or OTA license in good standing
• 2+ years of outpatient orthopedic experience
• Experience in case management, utilization review, or care coordination
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience treating workers’ compensation patients
• Experience coordinating with insurance adjusters or nurse case managers
• Bilingual (English/Spanish) strongly preferred; candidates with bilingual capabilities may be prioritized

Compensation

$52,000 – $55,000 annually, based on experience, including bilingual capabilities, licensure, and relevant background
Starting offers are typically aligned within the lower to mid-range

Work Environment

• Fully remote, structured work environment
• High-volume, task-based workflow
• Collaborative clinical support team

Important Note Before Applying

This position requires the ability to manage a high-volume caseload (150+ cases) while maintaining accuracy, communication, and follow-through. Candidates seeking a slower-paced or patient-facing role may not find this position to be a fit.
