Advanced Musculoskeletal Care

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

MedBridge Pioneers a New Hybrid Musculoskeletal Solution

— July 11, 2024 — Lifestyle
MedBridge has introduced a new hybrid musculoskeletal solution, with the hope of improving access to quality musculoskeletal care. The brand is partnering with hospital systems to provide a digital platform that extends the reach of physical therapy. This development addresses the widespread issue of musculoskeletal pain in the US, where traditional care often leads to high costs and over-reliance on surgical interventions. By integrating physical therapy earlier and more frequently in the patient journey, MedBridge aims to reduce these issues.

The musculoskeletal care platform is named Pathways and it allows healthcare providers to offer digital care programs that augment their in-person services. The solution will also help practitioners measure clinical outcomes over time and enhancing patient engagement. This approach is designed to keep patients within their existing healthcare networks while providing a consumer-friendly experience. Pathways includes features like clinical assessments, expert-backed content, and quality exercises, supported by artificial intelligence to guide patients through their therapy programs.
