Subacute rehab/ SNF work?

Hello all. Recently saw a post about a physiatrist in the PMR forum who only does contracted/1099 rehab work and is able to nearly double his patient volume in this clinical setting (30+ patients) in a day and hitting above +350k in income. Wondering if anyone has had a similar experience working in a subacute rehab or SNF setting and if so how to find such jobs.

Thanks in advance.

Cat gif for attention.

Hey PM&R here that does 1099 SAR consulting work. I’ll chime in since no one has answered. I work with the primaries in SNF and rarely see FM ballin’ solely doing SNF work. IIRC, they are only allowed to round on the patients once per month which makes it logistically impossible to capitalize on. As PM&R, CMS/Medicare allows us to see the patients that are getting therapies twice per week.

One of your guys’ high volume opportunities to make bank with the least hours seems to be urgent care work. It’s probably less time consuming than doing SNF as a primary since you can kind of turf time consuming and complex cases either to the ER or back to the/a primary. As a primary in SNF, you will be responsible for ongoing management of their chronic medical problems.
