CirrusMD and RecoveryOne Announce Partnership to Address Needs of Patients with Musculoskeletal (MSK) Pain

MSK patients will have fast and easy access to virtual care physicians and ongoing physical therapy programs


DENVER, June 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As more than 124 million people in the United States face the challenge of Musculoskeletal (MSK)-related issues(1), CirrusMD and RecoveryOne are announcing a partnership to help improve access to care, supported by virtual primary care physicians and on-demand physical therapy resources.

Effectively treating MSK issues is an important challenge in the U.S. today. Recently it was estimated that MSK conditions incur total medical care expenditures of about $240 billion, or around 2.9% of the U.S. GDP(2).

CirrusMD has created a virtual first primary care platform that connects patients with a doctor in less than 60 seconds, providing instantaneous care across all 50 states. RecoveryOne assists people struggling with MSK issues to achieve optimal recovery, bringing together a physical treatment plan with all aspects of health — encompassing both mind and body. Together, CirrusMD and RecoveryOne will provide a seamless model of care for MSK patients that enables treatment and referrals from physicians to ensure the best mode of care is determined, then delivered and supported by a personalized recovery Pathway™.

“At CirrusMD we are committed to providing whole-person care that includes access to efficient and efficacious care,” said Jamie Hall, President & CEO, CirrusMD. “RecoveryOne’s virtual approach to patient MSK care aligns perfectly with our focus on providing accessible quality care for everyone, especially those underserved by the current US healthcare system.”

“We take a very personal approach to patient recovery,” said Mark Luck Olsen, CEO, RecoveryOne. “As we develop solutions, we ensure we’re upholding the best practices in healthcare and adhering to a rigorous process for managing risk. Through this partnership, we will enable better/faster MSK care delivery for virtual/advanced primary care by equipping them with the know-how to assess, triage, and appropriately care for MSK conditions.”
