For ACOs, at-risk providers & other value-based organizations

Where is therapy missing in your system, and what is it costing you?

Falls. ED discharges. Hospital admissions. Joint replacements. Therapy is the most underutilized lever in value-based care — and the most expensive one to ignore. We orchestrate accountable therapy networks that divert procedures, reduce acute utilization and prove the outcome.

The challenge

Why therapy gaps show up in your total cost of care

The conditions therapy treats are among the most common and most expensive in healthcare, yet they stay largely invisible in population health strategy.

Avoidable surgical spend

Elective musculoskeletal procedures run $15,000–$50,000+ per case. Conservative therapy resolves or materially improves most episodes first, diverting cost without diverting care.

ED and urgent care leakage

Falls, lost mobility and declining function drive repeat ED visits, hospital admissions and readmissions. Therapy follow-up after discharge is the cheapest intervention you are not using.

Function decline and escalation

Without early intervention, members lose strength and independence — leading to specialty referrals, procedures, admissions and post-acute stays, the most expensive tail in any risk contract.

Member experience and retention

Function is what patients actually feel. Timely, specialized therapy lifts satisfaction scores and keeps members inside your network.

Where the savings add up

Prevention and primary care support

The biggest cost differences for an organization rarely come from one diverted surgery. They build up upstream — when therapy reaches people before a problem becomes an episode, and when primary care has a therapy partner to hand patients to.

Prevention

  • Fall-prevention, balance and strength programs that reduce fractures, ED visits and hospital admissions
  • Early therapy before problems escalate to costly specialty care, imaging or surgery
  • Restoring mobility and function so members stay independent and out of post-acute care
  • Post-discharge therapy that lowers readmission risk

Primary care support

  • Direct referral paths from primary care so patients start therapy in days, not months
  • Therapy as first-line care that reduces unnecessary specialist referrals and imaging
  • Shared progress updates that free up primary care visit time
  • Support for quality measures primary care is accountable for in risk contracts

Savings vary by population and contract. We report measured cost differences for your members and keep them separate from claims of proven savings.

Our approach

A turnkey therapy partner for value-based contracts

Curated therapy networks

Vetted therapy organizations and independent practices mapped to the service lines and geographies where your risk actually sits.

Remote therapeutic monitoring

Monitoring between visits tracks adherence, symptoms and function so clinical teams intervene before an episode escalates.

Outcomes-based reporting

Validated outcome measures tracked longitudinally, with quarterly cost-avoidance, diversion rate and quality metric reporting.

Risk stratification support

Screening protocols identify high-risk members early, then route them into therapy pathways before high-cost episodes begin.

How it works

From gap analysis to quarterly proof

01

Map the gap

Log each service line — ED discharges, falls, labor & delivery, joint replacement — with volume, current therapy penetration and estimated annual cost.

02

Match partners

Find therapy organizations in the network that cover those service lines and geographies, with capacity for accountable arrangements.

03

Treat and monitor

Evidence-based therapy with monitoring between visits. Dashboards show engagement for both clinician and patient.

04

Measure and report

Outcome measures, cost-avoidance calculations and quality metric reporting delivered to leadership every quarter.

The case for therapy in your risk contract

  • Avoid $15K–$50K+ per diverted elective procedure
  • Reduce falls, hospital admissions and readmissions
  • Improve HEDIS and Stars measures through preventive therapy
  • Lift CAHPS scores with timely, specialized access
  • Monitoring programs generate revenue while improving outcomes
  • Telehealth-enabled access across every covered geography
