About Ben Barron:

Ben Barron is SVP of Sales at Limber, a Net Health company, where he leads the commercial team responsible for rehab therapy across Optima, ReDoc, and Limber Health. A physical therapist by training, he brings a provider-first perspective to every conversation - one grounded in what actually happens in the clinic, not just what looks good in a slide deck. Ben works directly with outpatient PT practices, health systems, and enterprise rehab organizations - helping them move beyond the four walls of the clinic to improve patient engagement, drive outcomes, and build sustainable revenue through programs like RTM and HEP. His take on RTM is practical: the clinical case is already proven. The challenge is execution - qualifying the right patients, building the right workflow, and making sure the revenue model actually pencils out for the practice.

Developed by physical therapists and physicians, Limber provides a complete digital toolkit for Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM), Home Exercise Programs (HEP), Outcomes Collection, MIPS Reporting, and the shift to value-based care.
