Our take
Musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions are prime concerns for individuals and employers. In fact, 1 in 2 Americans experience some form of back and joint pain. Hinge Health has created a platform that brings treatment providers and patients together in order to prevent, treat and rehabilitate a variety of MSK conditions.
MSK spending has nearly doubled from $10 billion to almost $20 billion over the last 10 years. Analysis by Hinge Health indicates that MSK is an employer's highest medical claim expense. Despite this, patient results have not improved, which has led to a reported 70% of employers looking to adopt a digital MSK solution.
This wealth of opportunity has led to Hinge Health providing digital MSK clinics for employees at 1000+ companies, including Salesforce, US Foods and Boeing. With a valuation of over $6 billion, the company stands as one of the most valuable startups in digital health, and will be pursuing profitability as it prepares for a possible IPO.
