Overview
Please join us for a discussion and Q&A with Upswing Health's Co-Founder & President, Dr. Jay Kimmel, and CEO Adam Tibbs. Upswing is part diagnostic tool, part virtual clinic, and part recovery platform - 100% focused on orthopedics/musculoskeletal (MSK) issues. Built by specialists, this "virtual front door" and point solution is intuitive and on-trend. Hedgeye Health Care Sector Head Tom Tobin will lead the fireside chat format call, which we believe will provide a look into the future of digital health and the US Medical Economy.
We expect to cover topics that relate directly to the outlook for DarioHealth ($DRIO), Teladoc/Livongo ($TDOC), Amwell ($AMWL), as well as everyone else converging on the consumer and/or vying for employer, provider, and health plan business ($ONEM, $OSH, $HIMS, $WBA, $CVS, Hinge Health, Sword, Dispatch, Vera Whole Health, Omada, etc.). We'll also touch on the RPM partnerships and M&A activity in the orthopedic space (Zimmer Biomet & Canary, Stryker & Orthosensor, etc.), the size of the MSK market and issue(s) employers wrestle with, what good adoption/engagement rates look like, and what sort of cost savings can be achieved. Many of the discussion points relate to our recent decision to move Amwell to a Best Idea Short or help explain why TDOC was our "least favorite" long idea. We also look forward to hearing about the tech and promise of AI on the backend, and how to develop a product/tool that really works for patients and is longitudinal (i.e., is designed to be truly integrated and work in a value-based, at-risk framework).
