What does a therapy manager do?

As a therapy manager, your duties are to oversee the daily operations and financial issues and to manage the staff at a physical therapy office/department. Your employer may specialize in specific types of physical therapy, such as occupational therapy or sports injury therapy, or it may provide treatment to a variety of patients. Regardless of the specialization, as the manager, your essential responsibilities are the same. You coordinate staff scheduling, ensure that patients meet with the proper therapist, handle billing and insurance issues, and assist with marketing and community outreach.
