Built for the CMS THA/TKA PRO-PM mandate

Text-message patient intake + PROMs for orthopedic clinics

Patients get a text before the visit and complete a structured orthopedic intake plus validated outcome questionnaires (KOOS JR). An AI layer drafts a clinical summary with ICD-10 codes — the surgeon reviews and decides.

50%

Starting July 2024, CMS requires collection of pre- and post-operative patient-reported outcomes for hip and knee replacements — with a 50% response-rate threshold and payment penalties for falling short. Most orthopedic groups still chase these numbers by phone and paper. Orthopedian is the response-rate machine for that mandate.

From first text to reviewed summary

Text-first, no portals

Patients answer where they already are — in their messages. No app to install, no portal password to reset. That is what moves response rates.

Measure

Validated PROMs built in

KOOS JR is captured inside the adaptive pre-visit survey today, mapped to the CMS PRO-PM requirement. HOOS JR is next; the survey adapts to the patient's body region.
