Orthopedic & Sports Medicine Specialists (OSMS), a doctor-owned orthopedic, sports medicine, rheumatology, and pain management practice, has partnered with Hatch, a leading healthcare technology company, to provide individuals with free 24/7 access to orthopedic consultation and advice through a service called OrthoAccess by OSMS. OSMS is the first organization in Northeast Wisconsin to use this leading technology from Hatch.
“Partnering with Hatch to implement OrthoAccess means that our community members can avoid unnecessary trips to the emergency room, saving them money when it comes to orthopedic uncertainty,” says Sarah Schwarten, Chief Operating Officer at OSMS. “Patients don’t plan when injuries happen! We want to be there at all hours of the day, every day of the week. OrthoAccess provides the opportunity to get answers within minutes, easing people’s minds.”
OrthoAccess is for anyone who has suffered a recent orthopedic injury or is experiencing orthopedic pain or uncertainty and is looking for personalized, next step guidance. Anyone looking for answers about an orthopedic concern can start a real-time chat-based consultation from their phone or computer and connect with an orthopedic expert within minutes.
An OrthoAccess orthopedic expert will provide recommendations for acute injuries including fractures, sprains, strains, sports injuries, work injuries, and more. Additionally, one can learn how they should proceed with an orthopedic concern and not only discover possible conditions and treatment options, but also determine whether they should schedule an appointment with an orthopedic physician at OSMS.
