About Upswing Health:

Upswing Health is a startup that was created to solve the waste and inefficiency of America’s multi-billion-dollar crisis in MSK care with a radical re-reinvention of the delivery system – for individuals and employers. The company replaces the current model, which forces the injured to struggle through the time-consuming and costly choices of ERs, Urgent Care Centers, Primary Care Physicians, and Orthopedists. USH’s digital platform replaces that broken system with a better way using a proprietary diagnostic tool that sends patients to a health coach first as the virtual front-door to MSK care. This is sufficient for as many as 80% of all cases; those who need more sophisticated care are rapidly triaged. Patients stay in the USH ecosystem for the entirety of their journey– from prevention to diagnosis and recovery. USH was founded by orthopedic surgeons and is already working for a state government and municipality health plans and major healthcare providers.
