What must happen if no substantial progress is made with a patient in 30 days?

The PT must stop treating the patient
The PT must refer the patient to a specialist
The PT must report back to the PCP
The patient must seek a second opinion

The correct answer is: The PT must report back to the PCP

If no substantial progress is made with a patient in 30 days, it is important for the PT to report back to the PCP. This is because the PCP is the primary healthcare provider responsible for overseeing the patient's overall care and treatment. While options A and B may be options in certain situations, they are not always necessary and may not be the most appropriate course of action. Option D may also not be necessary as the PCP may be able to make adjustments to the treatment plan. Thus, it is important for the PT to communicate with the PCP in order to ensure the best course of treatment for the patient.
