Company responds to growing needs for access
to these areas of specialty physical therapy care
BOLINGBROOK, Ill., June 1,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- ATI Physical
Therapy ("ATI" or the "Company"), the largest single-branded
outpatient physical therapy provider in the United States, today announced that it has
expanded its Workers' Compensation and Auto Personal Injury program
offerings in its headquarter state of Illinois, and nationwide.
The expansion comes at a time when the need for these specialty
care services continues to grow. More Americans are returning to
the workplace, the demand for older and potentially lesser-skilled
workers is increasing, and more people are commuting again after
the worst of the COVID-19 pandemic. By expanding its Workers'
Compensation and Auto Personal Injury offerings, ATI aims to meet
this increased demand by getting people back to work and to daily
life safely, quickly and efficiently.
"We know from pre- and post-pandemic data that the need for
these services is on the rise. By expanding our Workers'
Compensation and Auto Personal Injury program in Illinois, we are prioritizing the delivery of
a consistent, predictable program for these patients and our
business partners at scale," said Lucas
Myers, ATI Director of Commercial Channel Development. "As
we did previously in Texas, this
continued expanded investment in Illinois demonstrates our commitment to not
just helping more people get back to health, but to also better
serving our partners who work with these patients. We expect this
will also provide a springboard for us to further expand these
programs nationally."
ATI has approximately 180 clinics in Illinois, making it the Company's most densely
covered state. Of those, 27 clinics in the Chicagoland area and
nine more in Central/Southern
Illinois will be designated as "hub" clinics, offering
full-service Work Conditioning & Work Hardening. Twenty-four of
the hubs will offer Functional Capacity Evaluations, in addition to
the acute care services offered at all clinics. The Company has
also added more team members dedicated to patient intake,
scheduling, case management and billing when working with business
partners such as attorneys, nurse case managers, physicians,
healthcare networks and other patient referrers.
Founded 25 years ago with roots in treating injured workers, ATI
is further investing in an important part of its heritage.
Collectively, ATI's Workers' Compensation and Auto Personal Injury
programs are designed to safely get injured workers and motorists
back to their best physical condition, reducing lost time on the
job, lost earnings and time away from their life's passions.
"We are proud to provide greater access and a higher level of
service with the right level of care for even more patients," said
Sharon Vitti, ATI Chief Executive
Officer. "With increased investments in Illinois, Texas and other states to come, we are excited
and committed to delivering an outstanding experience and outcomes
to more Workers' Compensation and Auto Personal Injury patients
nationwide."
