VIGEO reviews ZIP codes, travel expectations, and the confirmed coverage area before assignments. Visits are grouped geographically whenever possible. Coverage outside the confirmed area is reviewed before assignment and depends on your acceptance and agency needs.
Compensation Structure
This is a PRN W-2 role paid at $55-$65 per completed, authorized visit, depending on visit type. Indeed displays the range per hour because it does not offer a per-visit unit; the actual compensation is per completed visit, not an hourly wage or guaranteed salary.
Rates apply only to completed, authorized visits with required documentation. Mileage reimbursement and paid required onboarding, training, competency, and administrative work are handled under VIGEO policy. Patient volume varies with referrals, census, geography, clinical fit, supervising PT direction, and availability; no fixed number of visits or hours is guaranteed.
Onboarding And Training
All VIGEO clinicians complete a structured two-month onboarding pathway as they ramp into active visits. This includes paid required orientation, EMR and documentation training, competency validation, compliance training, and role-specific clinical support. Timing and assignment ramp depend on credentialing, availability, clinical readiness, patient safety, and agency needs.
