Airrosti and Luna Partner to Improve Access for Musculoskeletal Care
ROCKLIN, Calif. & SAN ANTONIO, Nov. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Luna, the leading provider of on-demand physical therapy, today announced a partnership with Airrosti, a national provider of high-quality, outcome-based musculoskeletal (MSK) care, to offer in-person, at-home physical therapy services to complement the Airrosti Remote Recovery (ARR) virtual care solution. Using Luna's in-person, on-demand physical therapy services platform, Airrosti can immediately expand access to convenient, high-quality, at-home care for patients in the 46 states currently covered by ARR.
The primary challenge faced by purely digital MSK offerings today lies in care coordination. No two patients are alike, and while many respond well to a virtual clinic experience, others require in-person care. However, for many patients, travelling to a clinic consistently for an extended period is inconvenient––or even impossible. For these patients and in markets where Airrosti doesn't have clinics, the Airrosti and Luna partnership is particularly important.
"As a provider group who is delivering care nationally, we needed a partner solution to best serve our virtual patients that may require in-person conservative care or physical therapy," said Chris Cato, D.C., chief population health officer for Airrosti. "This alliance with Luna provides timely and efficient access to high-quality care that improves clinical efficacy and drives better outcomes. And, from a service delivery standpoint, this relationship significantly enhances Airrosti's ability to rapidly ramp up in-person service in new markets as requested by our carrier and employer partners."
As an extension of Airrosti Remote Recovery, patients will gain the opportunity to use Luna's technology platform to request an appointment and then be matched to a local therapist based on specialty, geography, schedule, and other factors. Through the Luna partnership, ARR patients can expect:
- To begin treatment within 48 hours of referral
- In-person delivery at the patient's home, gym, or office
- 45 to 55 minutes of dedicated 1:1 time with a licensed physical therapist per visit
- Comprehensive MSK treatment––Luna's model of care supports 87%+ of all patients needing outpatient physical therapy
- A 50% higher adherence rate than in-clinic PT visits
"Airrosti recognizes that virtual care––and especially physical therapy––requires a customized, patient-centric approach to help improve outcomes," said Palak Shah, co-founder and head of clinical operations at Luna. "The hybrid virtual/in-person model made possible by this partnership will not only expand access to safe, convenient, high-quality care for more people nationwide, but will help ensure that more patients complete their PT regimens and regain the quality of life they need."
