Healthcare Outcomes Performance Company has acquired MoonlightOrtho, a musculoskeletal telehealth platform.
MoonlightOrtho was founded in 2019 by David Eisenhauer, DO, and the company was the first to provide care through on-demand or asynchronous telehealth, according to a Jan. 3 news release from HOPCo. HOPCo patints will be able to send videos to subspecialized providers and develop treatment plans.
"We know that many patients may be initially unsure if their symptoms are indicative of a true MSK condition or its acuity and, therefore, may delay or forego needed care or unnecessarily visit the ER for elective care," Rina Vertes, president of value-based care at HOPCo, said in the release. "By providing an easy-to-use resource to patients, their care can be expedited, appropriately monitored and expertly directed from a remote platform."
HOPCo has previously bolstered their digital technologies with acquisitions including McACTome.
