Hinge Health-BridgeHealth partner to provide full-spectrum treatment options for musculoskeletal conditions
DENVER–(BUSINESS WIRE)–BridgeHealth, a leading provider of national surgical Centers of Excellence, announced that it has partnered with Hinge Health, an innovative provider of digital care for chronic musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions — such as knee arthritis or low back pain.
Together, BridgeHealth and Hinge Health will assist plan sponsors, including large self-insured employers, tackle their largest cost driver – musculoskeletal health. Through this collaboration, innovative exercise therapy, coach-led behavioral health, education, and top-quality surgical care are coordinated to support the member’s journey, ensuring that the right treatment is delivered at the right time. For plan sponsors that means greater surgical avoidance when feasible and the best possible surgical care at bundled rate discounts when surgery is necessary.

“As part of our focus on quality, we want to ensure our members receive the best treatment available for their condition,” said Mark Stadler, President & CEO of BridgeHealth. “Working with Hinge Health lets us guide members who may not be ready for surgery to care that will help them improve through evidence-based methods.
