Full-Time / Per Diem | San Francisco, CA $64.90–$91.35/hour (approx. $135K–$190K annually full-time) | $10,000 Sign-On Bonus Full-time means a full-time paycheck. Our therapists are paid hourly for their scheduled hours, including drive time and documentation. No per-visit pay, no unpaid charting, and a growing patient census that keeps your schedule steady. At Health Link Home Health & Hospice, we believe great patient care starts with supporting the clinicians who deliver it. For over 20 years, we've served the Bay Area with a focus on clinical quality, strong systems, and a collaborative culture. We're growing our San Francisco team and looking for a PT who wants meaningful work, modern tools, and a team that's truly there for them. You'll see patients across SF's neighborhoods, from the Sunset and Richmond to the Mission and beyond, with a territory designed to minimize drive time and keep your day manageable. ## Why PTs Choose Health Link - Reliable income: Many agencies promise full-time work but only pay per visit, so a light week means a smaller paycheck. At Health Link, full-time staff are paid hourly for their scheduled hours, and our growing census means a steady, consistent caseload. - Hourly pay that covers your whole day: A long visit, a tough drive across the city, or a complex note never costs you money. - AI-assisted charting: Smart documentation tools on company devices that cut charting time and keep your evenings free. - Real-time support in the field: Our experienced clinical team can help with a new situation, call a patient when you're running late, or handle a lab result, so you're never on your own. - Quality-driven bonuses: Bonuses are based on patient outcomes and quality of care, not how many patients you see. - SF-friendly commute: Mileage reimbursement, a company vehicle (based on availability), or rideshare credits. - A manageable pace with organized scheduling and a team that respects your time. ## Compensation & Benefits - $64.90–$91.35/hour, based on experience - $10,000 sign-on bonus [payout terms] - Medical, dental, and vision insurance - 401(k) with employer matching - Paid time off, life insurance, and pet insurance - Company-provided mobile devices ## Your Role - Complete evaluations, re-evaluations, and discharges, and develop individualized plans of care - Provide skilled treatment focused on mobility, function, fall prevention, and safety in the home - Educate patients and caregivers on home exercise programs, equipment, and home safety - Supervise PTAs on your caseload when assigned - Coordinate with physicians, case managers, and the interdisciplinary team - Complete documentation using AI-assisted tools ## Requirements - Current California PT license (required) - Valid California driver's license (required) - Home health experience preferred. Strong outpatient, SNF, or hospital PTs are encouraged to apply, and we'll provide home health orientation and OASIS training - Ability to travel regularly within San Francisco and surrounding areas Schedule - Full-time or per diem - Flexibility, set your own visit times or choose your days - Direct hire position, not a contract role Ready to connect? Our process is simple: a short intro call, then a conversation with our clinical team. Most candidates hear back within 48 hours. ## About Health Link ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: HealthLink organizes regional, self-funded provider networks and cost-management programs for employers and third-party administrators in Missouri, Illinois, and surrounding states. - **Entity Type**: Private (subsidiary of publicly traded Elevance Health, Inc.) - **Headquarters**: Saint Louis, Missouri, United States - **Founded**: 1984 - **Founders**: Not publicly available ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Healthcare services – self-funded health plan networks and benefits administration support. - **Target customers**: B2B – employers of all sizes, third-party administrators (TPAs), and payors of health benefits. - **Mission / purpose**: To make health care access simple for employers by offering regional network advantages, flexible plan designs, and personalized support. ## Products & Services - **HealthLink PPO**: A preferred provider organization network contracted specifically to serve Missouri and Illinois, with national wrap network solutions. - **HealthLink Open Access**: An open access network option that supports employer-specific plan designs. - **Wellness & Cost Management Programs**: A portfolio of wellness initiatives, high-cost claim management, provider transparency tools, and collective purchasing resources. - **Specialty Insurance Products**: Life, disability, dental, vision, and workers’ compensation insurance marketed alongside core health plans. ## Market Standing - **Valuation / Market Cap**: Not disclosed (subsidiary of Elevance Health, Inc., a Fortune 50 company) - **Key Metric**: Annual revenue of ~$25.7 million (latest estimate) - **Notable Investors / Partners**: Parent company Elevance Health, Inc.
