“How to implement self-management support for MSK patients on waiting lists”
Join a live webinar with getUBetter as they share their insights on how to implement digital self-management support for musculoskeletal (MSK) patients on waiting lists.
12% of the UK adult population is on a waiting list, with 10,000 waiting for a T&O operation across an Integrated Care System (ICS). The length of waiting lists, persistent pain, and deconditioning are all a problem. There’s an absolute need to provide evidence-based locally configured peri-operative self-management support and safety netting for patients on waiting lists, wherever they are waiting in the system.
getUBetter has developed an orthopaedic elective recovery and safe waiting support module for patients across the peri-operative care pathway, including waiting list support, self-management whilst waiting, preparation for an operation, day-by-day in-patient stay, and post operation support with safety netting up to a year after. It can be provided alongside their MSK self-management support and the same app, which has been evidenced to drive benefits across entire care systems, including a 66% reduction in urgent care attendance and 26% reduction in single orthopaedic appointments in secondary care.
Key talking points:
- Why a whole pathway approach to digital self-management support is essential in optimising waiting lists.
- How to implement peri-operative and safe waiting support alongside existing MSK self-management support.
- The additive benefits of providing digital self-management support across the whole pathway.
