Optimize Your Patients to Better Prepare For and Recover From Surgery
Preoperative and post-operative virtual care for your orthopedic patients.
Small Lifestyle Changes Can Improve Outcomes
Our surgical optimization program focuses on improving patient safety and surgical outcomes. To ensure maximum preparedness and recovery, it is critical that patients are as physically “fit” as possible prior to their procedure. Patient fitness and nutrition levels, preoperatively, will enhance recovery and get patients back to an improved day-to-day life faster.
Full-Service Surgical Optimization Program Designed for Orthopedics
The Prescribe FIT clinical team of care coordinators are matched one-on-one with your patients as an extension of your care team to provide:
Daily Surgery Prep & Recovery Support
Virtual support via our innovative PACE mobile app and weekly 15-minute phone calls with their dedicated surgery prep care coordinator.
Physical Activity Guidance
Pre-operative exercises to strengthen and stretch muscles to properly support their new joint as well as post-operative exercises to reduce swelling and pain.
Nutritional Guidance
Subtle changes and suggestions including foods to avoid, nutrients to focus on, hydration reminders, anti-inflammatory diets, and more.
Patient Education
Online resources about joint replacements/reconstruction, arthroscopy procedures, arthritis, physical therapy, BMI reduction, smoking cessation, alcohol consumption, safe and proper opioid disposal, A1C reduction, Vitamin D supplements, metal allergies, sleep, stress, & more.
Home Preparedness & Surgery Prep Checklist Review
Reminders to complete pre-anesthesia testing, attend/watch pre-op classes, pack surgery bags, coordinate a ride home, prepare first floor bed, tape down rugs, use an antimicrobial wash, not eat or drink after midnight, and anything else on your pre-op lists.
Utilize Our Surgical Optimization Scorecard
Receive real-time data on surgery risks and surgical optimization scores for every one of your orthopedic patients with a surgery scheduled or planned. Optimized patients have less complications and improved experience from their initial follow-up through recovery.
Studies Show Surgery Optimization Improves Outcomes & Patient Experience
Studies have shown that optimizing modifiable risk factors leads to improved outcomes and patient experiences, with decreased lengths of stay (LOS), readmissions, complications, and costs.
The research also proves the importance of patient lifestyle health, nutrition, strength, mobility, sleep, stress, and preparedness for improving surgical outcomes; however, most orthopedic practices do not have the resources to implement an effective, personalized program for their patients.
By providing a remote patient monitoring service with daily touch points and weekly calls, Prescribe FIT’s team of clinical care coordinators and innovative mobile app provides high engagement, improved compliance, and an overall better surgical experience for patients.
