The average employee loses 10 days per year due to musculoskeletal conditions – more than any other major health condition.
Over 50% of American adults report suffering from a musculoskeletal disease, significantly more than circulatory or respiratory conditions. 70% of employees who have missed time at work report having a musculoskeletal condition.
We deliver impeccable virtual first, clinical care that keeps people out of the hospital and avoids unnecessary surgeries by focusing on integrated partnerships and collaborative care. A custom, un-fragmented, evidence based approach reduces costs and improves outcomes. The result is reduced costs and healthier employees with a higher quality of life.
Our collaborative care model is led by the primary care physician (PCP) and a dedicated musculoskeletal care manager handpicked for your organization’s specific needs.
