Case Study: IUOE Local 4 reduces pain and healthcare costs with Hinge Health

IUOE Local 4 reduces pain 54% in 90 days with Hinge Health

IUOE Local 4, a trade union representing heavy equipment operators, faced significant challenges with musculoskeletal (MSK) injuries among its members. These injuries led to chronic pain, high healthcare costs, and reduced productivity. The union's dispersed workforce across three states also made centralized communication and care access difficult. They partnered with Hinge Health to address these unique needs.

Hinge Health implemented its digital MSK solution, which provided an accessible and convenient alternative to traditional physical therapy. The program yielded remarkable results for IUOE Local 4, including a 54% reduction in pain after 90 days, an 88% reduction in depression, and a 52% reduction in surgery likelihood. Hinge Health delivered a projected ROI of 3.8x, saving the union over $1.3 million in healthcare costs.
