MD Ortho

Comprehensive Musculoskeletal Care at Work and Home

Description

Musculoskeletal conditions — back pain, knee injuries, shoulder problems — are the leading cause of missed workdays and one of the largest cost drivers in employer health plans. Yet the average wait to see an orthopedic specialist is three to four weeks, during which employees stay in pain, lose productivity, and often end up with unnecessary imaging or procedures. MD Ortho solves this with a virtual-first MSK clinic that connects employees to a specialist within 24 hours, no referral required. MD Ortho treats 250+ conditions spanning the full spectrum of musculoskeletal care — from acute injuries like sprains and fractures to chronic conditions including sciatica, plantar fasciitis, and rotator cuff issues. Each patient gets expert guidance and a personalized care plan, all through a single platform designed to simplify and accelerate recovery. In Brite, MD Ortho sits clearly within the benefits package so employees know exactly when and how to use it. That visibility drives utilization — which is where the real ROI for employers comes from.

Why It Matters

Musculoskeletal conditions are the leading cause of missed workdays and a top driver of employer healthcare costs. The problem is access — the average wait to see an orthopedic specialist is 3–4 weeks, during which employees stay in pain and often pursue unnecessary imaging or procedures. MD Ortho short-circuits that process with 24-hour specialist access and a care model built around getting people back to full function, fast.

Broker & HR Benefits

MSK claims consistently rank among the top three cost drivers in employer health plans. Brokers can position MD Ortho as a high-ROI point solution that reduces unnecessary procedures, lowers claim frequency, and keeps employees productive. HR teams get a fully managed virtual clinic with no new administrative burden — just a benefit employees genuinely need and will actually use.

Getting Started

Employers of any size can add MD Ortho to their benefits package without complex implementation. Employees access the platform, request a visit, and connect with an orthopedic specialist — typically within 24 hours, with no referral needed. In Brite, the MD Ortho listing ensures employees know exactly when to use this benefit and how to get started, turning enrollment into actual utilization.
