Jared Haase's questions to US Physical Therapy Inc (USPH) leadership • Q1 2025
Question
Jared Haase asked for key learnings from the recent leadership meeting with the newly acquired Metro team and whether any of their successful practices could be translated across other U.S. Physical Therapy partnerships. He also inquired about the specific factors making the home care opportunity attractive.
Answer
CEO Christopher Reading expressed high praise for Metro's leadership, growth plan, and mentorship culture. He identified Metro's unique "cradle-to-grave" service model, which includes pediatrics, home care, and having PT, OT, and speech therapists in facilities, as a key strength that is already being shared with other partners. Regarding home care, he explained its attractiveness stems from the ability to treat patients who are temporarily homebound and would otherwise be missed, providing clinician flexibility and capturing an incremental, profitable revenue stream.
