A new peer-reviewed U.S. study, Economic Impact of Digital Musculoskeletal Care versus In-person Physical Therapy: A U.S. Claims Analysis of Healthcare Utilization and Outcomes (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40983123/), has confirmed what many therapists are already noticing in practice:
Digital-first MSK care not only improves patient outcomes, it also lowers healthcare spending compared to traditional, in-person physical therapy.
The researchers found that patients using digital MSK programs:
- Required fewer costly downstream services like imaging and specialist referrals.
- Recovered faster thanks to consistent support and guidance.
- Reported higher satisfaction levels with their care.
This isn’t just an academic finding—it’s a clear signal that remote MSK treatment is the direction our field is moving.
