Value-based care is becoming more prominent in healthcare payment and delivery. For physical therapists, that shift creates opportunities to demonstrate how physical therapist services improve function, support better outcomes, and help manage the total cost of care.

It also raises important questions: How do different payment models work? What capabilities does a practice need? How can PTs evaluate potential agreements and communicate their value to payers?

APTA has assembled and updated resources to help members answer those questions, prepare for value-based care models, stay informed as the payment landscape evolves, and learn from others already doing this work.
