The Living Well Center of Washington University in St. Louis, Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City and the University of California San Francisco’s orthopedic department all implemented Wysa. The AI-assisted services are available to patients at a fraction of the cost for traditional therapy.

Wysa’s digital intervention for orthopedic patients was found to help reduce mental health concerns, improve physical function and pain interference, according to a study in JMIR Publications.

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
