I totally understand, but one of the issues agencies are hiring O.T.s and not
VRTs is that they can bill insurance and therefore it becomes a financial issue
for agencies.

Again Not to harp on the issue, it is not duct the fact that OT's can bill
medicaid but the fact that OTs training programs and tearily graduates out
number VRTs 100 to 1! The sheer percentage of available personnel in VRT just
does not exist.
