Physical Therapy (PT) is witnessing high demand in the U.S. due to significant cost savings, growing cases of sports injuries, and the rising prevalence of chronic pain. In addition, favorable reimbursement policies, a growing awareness about the benefits of occupational and physical therapies, and a rising number of physical therapists are contributing to the adoption of these services. Moreover, it is a growing profession in the U.S.
According to the American Physical Therapy Association, there were 312,716 licensed physical therapists in 2019. California, Texas, and New York have the highest number of physical therapists. The use of PT to improve the quality of life of individuals suffering from a variety of diseases, including musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, sports injuries, and others, is a significant factor contributing to the growth of the industry. The therapists provide an array of treatments to help alleviate, avert, and manage the conditions. In addition, these therapies prevent temporary impairments from becoming chronic conditions.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2.6 million nonfatal workplace injuries and illnesses occurred in 2021 in the private sector. Approximately 2.7 people per 100 workers were injured on the job. It is anticipated that the increasing cases of workplace-related injuries will boost the demand for occupational therapies, thereby driving industry growth. The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant effect on the industry. Cancellation of non-essential procedures, a decline in patient numbers, and temporary closure of outpatient PT clinics hampered the industry.
According to a report by the Center for Health Workforce Studies, between 65 and 72% of elective surgeries were temporarily halted or canceled in March and April of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. Orthopedic procedures requiring physical therapy, such as knee and hip replacements, were the most frequently postponed or rescheduled procedures. Despite lockdowns, telerehabilitation has been very useful in providing virtual care to patients. Moreover, due to the COVID-19 emergency, policy modifications have enabled a rise in telehealth adoption. In March 2020, legislation changes permitted physical therapists to bill Medicare for telehealth services at the same rate as in-person services.
