It’s estimated that every year, over 1.1 million patients in the United States and Canada undergo total joint replacement surgery. However, with an aging population and increase in chronic conditions the demand for hip and knee operations is increasing dramatically. A study in the Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery estimates by 2030 “demand for total hip arthroplasties to grow by 174% to 572,000 and demand for primary total knee arthroplasties by 673% to 3.48 million procedures”.
This 60-minute webinar highlights how Dr. Friedrich Boettner, an orthopedic surgeon and specialist at the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS), recognized the shift to value-based care and identified several areas of improvement that could be solved using a digital patient engagement platform. Specifically, the need for more comprehensive patient education, remote patient monitoring, and more effective methods for collecting Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) than traditional paper-based surveys.
During the webinar, you’ll learn how to:
This session is ideal for perioperative leaders, anesthesia teams, hospital executives, and quality improvement staff looking to modernize their PAC processes and accelerate surgical throughput.
Discover how SeamlessMD's digital care journey platform can help hospitals and health systems scale patient education, engagement, and monitoring for chronic conditions like CHF, COPD, diabetes, and hypertension. Unlike traditional device-based Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM), which is costly and staff-intensive, SeamlessMD offers a deviceless, lower-cost alternative that can reach 100% of patients. Our team will provide a live demo of the platform, showing how patients can access care via smartphones, tablets, or computers, and how providers can monitor progress and improve outcomes with real-time alerts and analytics.
As early adopters of digital care solutions, experts from MultiCare health system will share experiences and key learnings on how they engage and remotely monitor patients across a broad range of care journeys – in areas such as orthopedics, bariatrics, women’s health, urology, and more. Speakers will discuss specific efforts to elevate patient experience and safety while increasing profit margins and lowering costs. Learn how leveraging a digital care management solution to deliver timely patient education and remote monitoring can decrease length of stay, readmissions, emergency department visits and phone calls, and explore the benefits of system-wide integration with your EHR and patient portal.
