Targeted consumer and professional groups will recognize the benefits of and increase use of the services of physical therapists as practitioners of choice in maximizing movement and function.
Payment policymakers will better recognize the value of PT's and PTA's and create payment policies that more accurately reflect the resources required to achieve efficient and efficacious patient/client outcomes.
Best practice principals will be routinely identified, applied, and integrated by PT's and PTA's.
