What are the responsibilities and job description for the Physical Therapist position at Kovo Health?
The Opportunity
Kovo Health partners with licensed Tennessee Physical Therapists who want an independent practice opportunity with real autonomy: you build your own patient caseload, control how you practice, and grow your earnings as you grow your book of business—while Kovo handles the infrastructure (credentialing, billing, collections, and the platform).
We support licensed PTs who want to grow their own independent outpatient practices without taking on administrative burden or upfront costs. Many clinicians start part-time and expand at their own pace while maintaining full control over their schedule and clinical approach.
This opportunity is well-suited for physical therapists who value one-on-one care, independence, and long-term practice growth.
If you have an entrepreneur mindset, enjoy one-on-one care, and want flexibility without taking on the administrative burden of running a practice alone, this is built for you.

- Motivated to build and expand your own caseload
- Comfortable networking and generating referrals (community, physicians, trainers, employers, etc.)
- Clinically independent and confident delivering high-quality outpatient care
- Looking for flexibility, autonomy, and long-term upside without clinic politics or rigid schedules
How You Earn
- $50 per billable treatment hour
- Your earnings are not tied to clinic schedules—your income grows as you build your patient caseload
