# Units per visit

A term used when buying physical therapy practice.

How many billable treatment units a visit produces, set by time and by what was done.

Revenue per visit is units times rate, so a clinic can look busy and bill thin, and a clinic can bill thick in a way that invites an audit. Both of those are findings. The timed half is set by the eight-minute rule, which turns eight to twenty-two minutes into one unit and twenty-three to thirty-seven into two, so a small change in session length moves the bill by a whole unit. Ask for units per visit by therapist against the payer's own guidance, and treat an outlier in either direction as a diligence item rather than as a number to project forward.
