The Blueprint PTs Can Use to Change Healthcare Policy

Private practice physical therapy leaders, clinic owners, and PT advocates: learn how Utah PTs changed legislation to achieve primary care co-pays and better patient access—and how your state could replicate the same strategy. In this episode, Howard Quackenbush breaks down how competing clinics unified, built relationships with legislators, and passed legislation that lowers financial barriers for patients seeking physical therapy. Instead of fighting each other, PT leaders coordinated fundraising, grassroots advocacy, and strategic messaging to push through a major policy change. For clinic owners and PT leaders, this isn’t just a policy story. It’s a blueprint for influencing healthcare decisions that impact patient access, reimbursement, and the future of private practice physical therapy. If PTs want stronger reimbursement, better patient access, and real influence in healthcare policy, it starts with coordinated action at the state level. 00:00 Why This Policy Win Matters 03:10 The Problem With PT Co-Pays 08:42 Competing Clinics Unite 14:05 Inside The Legislative Fight 21:03 How The Bill Passed 27:02 The Blueprint For Other States 33:20 Building A PT Movement 40:10 Lessons From Leadership 44:30 The Parting Shot Guest: Howard Quackenbush, PT
