usually just insurance stuff, like double booking medicare patients
i've heard of patients falling and busting a hip because the therapist was seeing 3 other patients at the same time.
I have heard of male PT's and Massage therapists being too handsy(that's why I treat everyone in common room or if have to do private room bring in an aid)
Personally, I think a lot of the unethical stuff is not necessarily the fault of the therapist but the company as a whole. When large outpatient companies like Athletico keep getting bought by investment firms, squeeze as much productivity out of the therapists as humanly possible, making the therapists work 50-60 hours a week in some cases and paying them for 37.5, paying them shockingly low compared to hospital outpatient PTs, and having aides basically run patients through exercises each time with 10-15 mins with actual PT....yeah that's where I have a problem. I'm a PT who has been a patient recently(location is close to my house) and the therapists are great, smart, etc. But they get burnt out, if they leave they get replaced by another new grad, and they don't have a lot of options for OP jobs because the large companies have a monopoly on the area-and thus have more influence on business ethics. That's the danger. Big companies( like ATI and Athletico) are taking over the US market.
