The demand for Physical Therapy is continuing to increase due to an aging population, decreased hospital stays, sedentary lifestyles, and increased longevity. As with many areas of the current US health care system, this market is also contending with numerous inefficiencies and unmet needs including:
• Rising cost
• Decreasing access based on geography, personal schedules, mobility, and capacity constraints
• Low compliance
• Variable quality of therapy
• Minimal quantitative outcome measures
• Limited longer-term wellness and preventative care
iFIXme is addressing these challenges by coupling the ubiquitous availability of the Internet with Web 2.0 functionality and the expertise of physical therapists, trainers and physicians to deliver best-practice therapy online. iFIXme’s Integrated PT Service Platform ultimately enables enhanced physical therapy outcomes at a lower cost and higher patient convenience.
