The Dave Kittle Show

Why "Covered by Insurance" Is Sinking Your Practice


Listen Later

If Medicare only pays for the "bare minimum," why are so many clinicians still giving away their best work for free?


What if you stopped seeing Medicare as the full solution and started using it as the entry point to a better experience... would your business survive longer?


Join us for a special crossover session, "The Breakfast Club," originally recorded on PT Pintcast. I'm your host, Dave Kittle, alongside Jimmy McKay, Director of Communications at Mount Sinai Hospital and Anthony (Tony Maritato) Maritato, a seasoned physical therapist, private practice owner, and online business entrepreneur.
