Sell a Physical, Occupational, or Speech Therapy Practice: a business broker for physical, occupational, and speech therapy owners
Therapy practices, whether clinic-based or mobile, are valued on therapist productivity, payer contracts, and how widely referrals come in.
Pediatric therapy fits closely with pediatric home health and PDN, which widens the buyer pool.
What drives valuation in physical, occupational, and speech therapy
Therapist productivity
Visits per therapist per day, and how much of the schedule the owner carries personally.
Referral breadth
Many referring physicians and schools are worth more than one large source.
Payer contracts
Rates and assignment terms on each commercial and Medicaid contract are read closely.
Owner dependence
An owner who carries a full caseload is part of the price. Plan the transition.
