MD Ortho: Work Comp | Medical Claims Solution Wrapped In One

If you want to help your clients control their health insurance premiums, you must help them control their claims. Musculoskeletal (MSK) and orthopedic conditions are consistently a top three cost driver for employers. Yet, the traditional healthcare system forces patients through a bloated, expensive, and time-consuming maze of primary care, unnecessary physical therapy, and urgent care visits before they ever see a specialist.My guests, Dr. Tom Weber and Peter Krahn of MD Ortho, join me to discuss how their physician-led digital platform is completely changing the way orthopedic care is delivered. We break down the "Pyramid and the Pie" of direct specialty care, how treating employees like professional athletes gets them back to work faster, and why bypassing the ER for workplace injuries is a massive win for workers' comp mod rates. If you want to bring actionable, cost-containment solutions to your self-funded clients rather than just talking in theory, this episode is a must-listen.▶▶ Sign Up For Your Free Discovery Callhttps://completegameu.com/request-a-callTimestamped Outline(00:00) The Broker's Voice: Introducing Dr. Tom Weber and Peter Krahn(02:09) The Breaking Point: Why Traditional Orthopedic Care is Unsustainable(05:29) Leaving the Ancillary Space: Why Peter Krahn Joined the MD Ortho Mission(07:26) The MSK Epidemic: Why Orthopedics is a Top 3 Cost Driver for Employers(09:34) Crawl, Walk, Run: How the Broker Community is Waking Up to Direct Care(14:09) The Pyramid and the Pie: Explaining MD Ortho to a Benefits Consultant(19:30) The Employee Experience: From Injury to Recovery with a Physician-Led Team(24:04) Skipping the Line: Why Direct Access to an MRI Beats 6 Weeks of Unnecessary PT(28:56) The Workers' Comp Ecosystem: Reducing Days Away From Work and OSHA Recordables(32:47) Bypassing the ER: Why Your Clients Need a Standalone Ortho Solution(36:06) The Lightning Round: 96/100 Free Throws and Doing CPR at the Pro Bull Riders RodeoCONNECT WITH ANDY NEARY📲 Schedule a free discovery call:completegameu.com/agaSubscribe and listen to the Accelerate Your Insurance Sales Podcast 🎙 here:https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/andy-neary7 🎯 Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube 🎥:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyqBg5tL_1G1tf7Wo98tMgg💬 Join the Complete Game text community:Text the word BROKER to 414-622-1462Connect with Andy Neary on social media: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andyneary/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andy_neary/
