Case Study: Prisma Health cuts employee pain and surgery risk with Hinge Health

Prisma Health cuts employee pain by 50% with Hinge Health

Prisma Health, South Carolina's largest healthcare organization, faced significant challenges with musculoskeletal (MSK) issues among its employees. With a workforce engaged in physically demanding jobs, MSK pain was a major driver of costs for their benefits plan. Existing in-person physical therapy services were difficult for many employees to access due to scheduling conflicts and personal responsibilities. Prisma Health needed a convenient and engaging solution, leading them to partner with Hinge Health for a digital MSK solution.

The Hinge Health program provided accessible digital therapy sessions and support. This implementation resulted in a 50% reduction in employee pain and a similar decrease in the likelihood of surgery within the first year. The solution also yielded a 3.6x return on investment for Prisma Health. The vendor, Hinge Health, achieved high member satisfaction and strong engagement, with over 2,000 members participating and reporting significant improvements in pain, anxiety, and productivity.
