Challenge: With no existing outpatient physical therapy clinics, a Denver, Colorado hospital was looking for ways to improve continuity of care and complement its expanding orthopedic service lines. The hospital began searching for a strategic partner to help meet its growth goals:
- Gain market share through an increase in provider relationships and referrals
- Drive downstream revenue
Result: In the first year of partnership, the hospital increased daily evals by 238% – from an average of 0.8 to 2.7. The hospital’s expanded outpatient PT presence also led to a dramatic 388% increase in physician referrals, generated from 80 unique provider groups.
