evaluation Eight virtual MSK solutions were evaluated in terms of clinical effectiveness and economic impact. PHTI categorized the solutions based on technology, clinician engagement, and integration with traditional in-person care. RecoveryOne was specifically categorized as a “physiotherapist-led solution” and was evaluated alongside app-based exercise therapy and RTM augmentation solutions.

- Improve patient pain and function at a level comparable to in-person physical therapy.

The PHTI findings advocate for wider adoption of physical therapist-led solutions like RecoveryOne to improve access to care, reduce healthcare utilization and lower expenses. “At RecoveryOne, we have always believed in the power of virtual solutions like ours to improve the cost and quality of MSK care, and we are pleased to have this independently validated as part of this study,” said the CEO. Mark Lack Olson.

According to Olson, RecoveryOne “believes we can make the greatest impact by partnering with health plans to offer our solution as an integrated part of their branded member journey.”
The PHTI report emphasizes the importance of a payer-centric approach, suggesting that to realize the full potential of physical therapist-led virtual solutions, integration into health benefits, rather than wellness programs, is key.
