In this episode, Aaron LeBauer—one of the leading advocates for cash-based physical therapy—shares how and why he built a thriving practice outside the insurance model.

• Why Cash Pay?
  Insurance limits patient care. Aaron started his own clinic to deliver better outcomes with fewer constraints.
• First Step for Insurance-Based Clinics:
  Start by offering one cash-pay service. Test interest and build confidence.
• Must-Have Systems:
  • Clear pricing & value messaging
  • Lead follow-up processes
  • Strong patient communication
• How to Communicate the Shift:
  Be upfront. Focus on results and quality. Offer transition options if needed.
• Marketing That Works:
  • Educational content
  • Community outreach
  • Google Ads & SEO for intent-based searches
• Challenges vs. Advantages:
  Cash pay requires educating patients, but it also brings more freedom and attracts highly motivated clients.
