Increased engagement and patient interactions increases compliance.
Nothing is worse than patients who stop showing up when they have not completed therapy. TRAZER’s measurement of multi-directional symmetry provides an objective metric that gives your patient a goal prior to release. Our red, yellow and green stoplight report emphasizes where they are in the rehabilitation process. Statistics show that pain levels decrease enough so that the patient feels fully functional when they are still 25-30% asymmetrical. As a therapist, you can see that they need more work, but they may be reluctant to invest the time and money into more visits unless they understand the process. TRAZER allows you to educate them at the beginning of their therapy journey. Without TRAZER’s objective data, you may lose revenue from lost visits, but more importantly, the patient has a 20-30% increased risk of reinjury in 6 months or less because they have not completed their treatment. Make the experience and relationship more engaging and something they look forward to and bring them into the progress discussion so they understand why they need to keep coming to get the best results. Objective data, on demand biofeedback and progression can help them understand where they are in their treatment. Setting clear goals that the patient is aligned and committed to is also critical. If you increase your compliance from 80% to 95% using an average 12 visit per patient, you lift your average visits per patient by 15% or 1.8 visits per patient. This translates to $180 per patient using $100 average revenue per visit. That adds up fast and makes a measurable difference over the course of a month or a year.
