We believe in empowering the rehab therapy community to achieve greatness in practice. That’s why we created an innovative, end-to-end business solution designed specifically for rehab therapy professionals.
WebPT gives every rehab therapy business—from single-therapist clinics to multi-location enterprises—the tools necessary to maximize performance, revenue, and patient outcomes.
In 2006, Heidi Jannenga, a leading sports physical therapist and multi-site clinic director, was looking for ways to improve her practice’s bottom line. After identifying dictation and paper documentation management as two of her business’s biggest costs, she started looking for a less expensive solution to documentation.
Heidi knew she needed something that would not only fit her workflow as a PT, but also be affordable, intuitive, and easy to implement in her practice. The more she shopped around, though, the more discouraged she became. That was when she enlisted the help of Brad Jannenga, a seasoned technologist with three successful SaaS platforms under his belt, to develop her business’s ideal software solution. Brad shadowed Heidi in her practice to gain a deep understanding of her workflow and documentation needs. In the evenings, the two would regroup and map out how the software should work. Then, Brad would get to coding and Heidi would get to testing. And piece by piece, WebPT—a web-based physical therapy EMR—was born.
WebPT officially launched in 2008. Within three years, their cloud-based idea grew into the leading physical therapy software on the market. Today, as co-founder and and Chief Clinical Officer, Heidi advises on the company’s strategic direction and product innovation, while advocating for the rehab therapy profession on an international scale. Since its launch, WebPT has evolved from a startup into one of the nation’s fastest-growing privately held companies, employing more than 500 people, while helping more than 80,000 Members run better, more efficient practices and improve care delivery.
In addition to offering defensible, compliant, and intuitive documentation, WebPT provides physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech-language pathologists with intelligent business and compliance reporting, interactive and organized scheduling, integrated billing software and revenue cycle management services, built-in patient outcomes tracking, patient-facing marketing and home exercise software, and one-stop shopping (and saving) with the WebPT Marketplace. And it’s all web-based, which means therapists can securely manage their patients and practices anywhere, anytime.
Never satisfied with the status quo, we here at WebPT continue to innovate, performing weekly software updates to ensure our Members always get the very latest in technological advancements and compliance solutions. And our Members have a seat at the WebPT development table, so to speak. Within the application, they can submit suggestions and vote on the priority of system updates as well as new features and products. In fact, some of the most meaningful application improvements have come directly from Member suggestions.
Headquartered in the historic Warehouse District in downtown Phoenix, WebPT has been listed on Inc. Magazine’s list of the nation’s 5,000 fastest-growing companies seven years in a row—earning it a spot on the prestigious Inc. Honor Roll—and ranked on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 list in 2016. We’re also one of the fastest-growing software companies in Arizona and one of the fastest-growing EMRs in the country, with hub locations in California, Minnesota, Maine, Georgia, Virginia, Massachusetts, and Colorado. Holding true to our startup roots, we value lean business principles, a casual work environment, and collaborative, team-oriented workspaces. Office culture reflects our mission to innovate: we work smart, play hard, and always put our Members first—and that’s demonstrated by our 99% uptime rate and 99% customer retention rate. We also love dogs, food trucks, flip-flops, and Nerf guns.
