We're Here to Change Musculoskeletal Care

We took a broken system and rebuilt it from the ground up.

Current problems with MSK care

Variability

High Levels of Variability

Providers have highly varied practice methods for assessing, diagnosing, and treating MSK conditions.
Many methods used by clinicians are not considered best practices that are supported by the peer science (includes physician, ARNP/PA, physical therapy, and chiropractic disciplines).

 

Limited Measurement

Limited Measurement

Patient-reported outcomes are the gold standard for tracking MSK patient experience/outcomes.

Broad-scale collection of this data is not a standard practice and must be implemented to create scalable and sustainable outcomes.

 

 

Quality Management

Lack of Quality Management

Combining patient data with medical claims data to create a continuous improvement model in healthcare is a rare practice.

Without transparency around this information, it becomes impossible to identify outliers and guarantee consistent results.

The current system isn't working

Patients are being misdiagnosed and receiving unnecessary, invasive, and costly surgeries or injections.

All providers are highly trained in best practices and methods for assessing, diagnosing, and selecting appropriate treatment

Matching the patient’s condition with the most appropriate treatment classification allows the clinician to rapidly sub-classify the patient into one of five management groups for treatment.
