He worked in both insurance-based and self-pay practices before opening Carter Physiotherapy in Spring 2010, a cash-based Physical Therapy clinic where he provides an hour of one-on-one care in every treatment session. Via creative marketing and his reputation for giving fast results, his patient schedule was full within 6 months of opening his cash-based practice.

With Insurance and Medicare reimbursements on the decline, many insurance-based PT clinics are struggling to maintain profit margins along with quality care. Jarod sees cash-based services as an important part of surviving the current and future changes in the health care industry, as well as maintaining high quality treatment options for consumers.
