PT practices need specialized rehab equipment, large treatment spaces, and enough therapists to handle patient volume. Between $15K treatment tables, $40K modality systems, and the credentialing delays that slow new-hire revenue — physical therapy practices need capital that keeps the clinic running.
This Is Why You're Here
You're adding an aquatic therapy pool — $80K including installation, filtration, and facility modification. It would differentiate you from every other PT clinic in the area.
You hired a new PT but insurance credentialing takes 90 days. Salary is $7K/month and they can't bill insurance until credentialed. You need 3 months of bridge capital.
Your lease is up and you found a bigger space — 3,000 sq ft with room for 8 treatment bays. Build-out is $55K including flooring, equipment mounts, and a private eval room.
A local hospital just closed their outpatient rehab program and 200 post-surgical patients need a new PT provider. You need $35K for two additional treatment bays and a part-time PTA to absorb the volume before they go to your competitor.
Your AlterG anti-gravity treadmill died and the replacement is $42K. You've got 25 patients with active treatment plans who need that machine this week. Every day without it you're losing $1,200 in billable sessions.
We added an aquatic therapy pool for $80K through Basecamp's equipment financing. It completely differentiated us from every other PT clinic in the area. Revenue jumped $18K a month.

Built for Your Business
Aquatic therapy pools, anti-gravity treadmills, isokinetic machines — $40K-$100K devices that banks don't understand. We finance them all with the equipment as collateral.
New PT hires cost $7K a month for 90 days before they can bill insurance. That's $21K in dead salary. We fund the gap so you hire when you need to, not when you can afford to.
Treatment bays, flooring, equipment mounts, private eval rooms — a proper PT clinic build-out runs $40K-$80K. We fund the full build so you open right the first time.
PT patients come 2-3 times a week for 6-12 weeks. That's the most predictable revenue in healthcare. Our lenders love it and approve accordingly.

PT has a unique cash flow problem — insurance credentialing. You hire a therapist at $7K a month. They can't bill insurance for 60-90 days. That's $21K in salary before you see a dime back. And you can't not hire them because you've got patients stacking up and treatment plans that need continuity. It's a catch-22 that banks don't understand.
We get it. A $21K bridge loan to cover credentialing isn't a risk — it's an investment in a provider who'll generate $12K-$15K a month once they're paneled. And if you're looking at bigger moves — an $80K aquatic therapy pool, a $55K clinic build-out, modality systems at $40K — we finance all of it. A PT clinic in Denver added aquatic therapy through us. $80K total. Added $18K a month in revenue. Paid for itself in under 5 months. Fill out the app.
