Physical Therapy Board reviews first-year progress on 2024–29 strategic plan
Summary
Board staff reported limited task completion in first year of the 2024–29 strategic plan, with 6 of 80 action-plan tasks marked complete and most activity concentrated in outreach and organizational effectiveness.
The Physical Therapy Board of California on June 26 received an update on the first year of its 2024–29 strategic plan, during which staff said 6 of 80 action-plan tasks are complete and 27 additional tasks are in progress.
The executive officer provided the update during the board—s second-day meeting in Sacramento and by webcast. Staff said the plan, developed with facilitation by the Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA) SOLID team, uses scorecards and an action-matrix to track progress.
Board staff described goal-level completion percentages shown in the written report: enforcement 8%, licensing 13%, outreach and communication 6%, organizational effectiveness 6%, and continuing competency had no tasks marked complete. The action plan contains 80 discrete tasks; counting completed and in-progress work, staff reported activity on 33 tasks, which they described as roughly "41% progress" toward goals using their task-completion metric.
Staff emphasized that the percentage figures reflect task completion rather than all ongoing work. As an example, outreach and website updates were listed among tasks that may be marked complete while continuing as ongoing activities. Completed items cited in the update included consultant trainings, website content reviews, a military outreach initiative and staff development offerings. The board used DCA SOLID templates for scorecards, staff said.
Board members asked about progress measures that call for a formal "report to the board," noting some objectives require numerous subtasks to be finished before that reporting metric can be checked off. Staff said the timing of formal reports is at the board—s discretion and that some metrics rely on completion of prerequisite tasks. Members also asked about a continuing-competency workload study and a fee-table related to recognized approval agencies; staff said a workload study and data collection are underway to inform future rulemaking and fee-setting.
Materials presented at the meeting, including the goal and objective scorecards and the action-matrix, will be posted with the board—s materials following the meeting. Staff invited questions and said they will continue monitoring and reporting progress on the plan.
The presentation concluded with no formal action by the board on the strategic plan update.
