The market

How many physical therapist assistants work in Maine

315 physical therapist assistants hold an active individual NPI with a practice address in Maine, and 12 new ones enrolled in the last twelve months. A high wage with few clinicians per capita usually means employers are competing for people; a low one in a crowded market means the opposite.

Licensed in another state?

Maine has enacted the PT Compact but is not yet issuing compact privileges, so physical therapists and physical therapist assistants licensed elsewhere still need a Maine license for now.
