Why physical therapists should send professional invoices
You provide a wide range of specialized services to get your patients moving and prevent or minimize mobility issues. That means you need a flexible invoice that can cover everything from assessment and development of a physical therapy plan – to regular therapy sessions.
At the same time your invoices need to be highly organized and easy-to-understand so your patient, and possibly their caregiver and health insurance provider, knows exactly what you are charging for.
A sophisticated, well-designed invoice also reflects your image as a health professional, and creates credibility and confidence in your physical therapy expertise.
Once you've downloaded your free invoice template, you'll need to customize it to fit your specific business. Here are the 10 key things to include on your invoice:
- Title and Description: Name the project and briefly describe what type of work your client is being invoiced for.
- Company Details: Add your company name, address, phone number, and logo to the top-right corner.
- Customer Details: Under "Bill To", add your customer's name, address, and contact information.
- Invoice Number: Include a unique invoice number to help you track down this invoice in the future. You can format this based on sequence and customer. For example, if you're sending your very first customer their first invoice, the invoice number could be 001-001.
- Dates: Include the date when your invoice has been issued and the date when payment is due.
- Line Item: Add individual line items for each unique good or service you provided. For each line item, include a brief description, quantity, individual unit price, and total price.
- Subtotal: Add up the subtotal of your goods or services, before tax has been applied.
- Tax: Indicate the tax rate applied to the subtotal. This is legally required to provide on invoices, and your rate may differ depending on where you run your business.
- Total: Outline the total amount due from the customer, after tax.
- Notes: Include any additional info your customer should know, including terms of service and payment terms (for example, payments are due 30 days after the invoice has been issued).

When is the right time to send an invoice to your physical therapy patients?
The time to send your invoice depends upon your patient and the physical therapy you provide. If it’s an assessment or diagnosis, many physical therapists give the invoice to the patient immediately after the session. If you are seeing a patient on a regular, ongoing basis, or for an extended treatment plan – it’s a good idea to decide on a payment schedule.
This keeps your revenue flowing in, while ensuring manageable, regular payments for your patients.
