Frequently asked questions
What is the PT Compact?
The PT Compact is an interstate agreement allowing physical therapists and PTAs licensed in a member state to practice in other member states. Our PT coverage is powered by state boards and the PT Compact public directory — we query both compact records and individual state board records to return a single structured response.
How many states are covered?
43 states are currently active, powered by state boards and the PT Compact public directory, with direct state board integrations for FL and NY. Additional states are in development.
What does compact_eligible mean?
When true, it indicates the licensee's home state participates in the PT Compact and their license is in good standing, allowing practice in other compact states.
