How Vidscrip improves patient engagement and reduces readmissions in orthopedics

The biggest missed opportunity in orthopedics isn't a new implant or surgical technique. It's the dead space. The anxious weeks before surgery. The uncertain days after discharge. This is where patient satisfaction plummets, readmissions spike, and operational inefficiencies multiply. We've perfected the 90-minute total knee replacement, but we still hand patients a 20-page paper packet and hope for the best. This isn't just a poor patient experience; it's a critical business failure. The paradigm is shifting from episodic intervention to continuous connection. Imagine this: - A patient scheduled for TKR receives a SMS prompt a week before surgery with a list of short videos video FROM HER OWN DOCTOR that answer all of her pre-op questions, freeing staff from time-consuming calls. - Post-op, she receives another SMS prompt with videos about her recovery, flagging potential issues before they require a frantic phone call or an ER visit. This isn't science fiction. This is modern patient engagement with Vidscrip. And the ROI is staggering. Practices implementing these connected care journeys are seeing: 🔹 5x reduction in post-discharge unplanned visits and readmission. 🔹 70% reduction in cancellations and no-shows. 🔹 Improvement in HCAHPS scores related to communication. 🔹 Improvements in Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs). By engaging patients as active partners in their own care, we build trust, improve outcomes, and create fierce loyalty. The practices that master this will not only survive but dominate in the era of value-based care. The question is no longer if this is the future, but who will lead the charge?
