Learn more about how PeteDME helps PTs maximize their earning potential from one of our expert PTs, Madelyn McCullough, PeteDME DPT.

What initially drew you to PeteDME custom bracing?

To be honest, I was excited about the additional income opportunities. Like many PTs, I’m burdened with student loan debt and PeteDME has really allowed me to alleviate that burden a lot more quickly. But I was also very motivated to help my patients recover more quickly and achieve their health goals with bracing enhancing their PT treatment. I also really liked that PeteDME offered custom bracing certification at no-cost so I could feel confident offering my patients this specialized care. 

How do you incorporate custom bracing into your treatment plan?

First, I perform a quick screening at the end of an existing appointment to confirm they have qualifying symptoms for custom bracing. If they do qualify, I order a medical-grade brace through PeteDME and at their next appointment, I custom fit their brace and provide instructions for how to wear the brace as part of their overall treatment plan. It really couldn’t be simpler! 

What impact has custom bracing had on patient outcomes?

My patients have really embraced custom bracing and that has been really motivating for me as a PT. There have been a myriad of benefits for my patients including: improved support and stability, pain relief, posture improvement, controlled range of motion and more. In addition, bracing can be a great preventative measure to help prevent disability and falls. Custom bracing has been an all-around welcome addition to my treatment options and I’m excited to see my patients continue to progress on their health goals.

How has PeteDME affected your schedule and caseload? 

PeteDME makes the whole process so easy. I simply brace my existing patients and fit them for their brace at the end of a regular in-home PT session. So the additional income with PeteDME doesn’t even require additional appointments! 

What would you tell other PTs who are interested in joining PeteDME?

I would tell them that PeteDME has been a win-win! My patients benefit from improved outcomes and I earn up to $400 per visit in additional income. PeteDME offers so much potential for both patients and PTs and I really see this as a gamechanger for the industry.
