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

<p>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.</p><p><br></p><p>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 &quot;Pyramid and the Pie&quot; 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&#39; 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.</p><p><br></p><p>▶▶ Sign Up For Your Free Discovery Call</p><p><a href="https://completegameu.com/request-a-call">https://completegameu.com/request-a-call</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Timestamped Outline</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>(00:00)</strong> The Broker&#39;s Voice: Introducing Dr. Tom Weber and Peter Krahn</p><p><br></p><p><strong>(02:09)</strong> The Breaking Point: Why Traditional Orthopedic Care is Unsustainable</p><p><br></p><p><strong>(05:29)</strong> Leaving the Ancillary Space: Why Peter Krahn Joined the MD Ortho Mission</p><p><br></p><p><strong>(07:26)</strong> The MSK Epidemic: Why Orthopedics is a Top 3 Cost Driver for Employers</p><p><br></p><p><strong>(09:34)</strong> Crawl, Walk, Run: How the Broker Community is Waking Up to Direct Care</p><p><br></p><p><strong>(14:09)</strong> The Pyramid and the Pie: Explaining MD Ortho to a Benefits Consultant</p><p><br></p><p><strong>(19:30)</strong> The Employee Experience: From Injury to Recovery with a Physician-Led Team</p><p><br></p><p><strong>(24:04)</strong> Skipping the Line: Why Direct Access to an MRI Beats 6 Weeks of Unnecessary PT</p><p><br></p><p><strong>(28:56)</strong> The Workers&#39; Comp Ecosystem: Reducing Days Away From Work and OSHA Recordables</p><p><br></p><p><strong>(32:47)</strong> Bypassing the ER: Why Your Clients Need a Standalone Ortho Solution</p><p><br></p><p><strong>(36:06)</strong> The Lightning Round: 96/100 Free Throws and Doing CPR at the P
