Aria uses telehealth and digital avatar-based guidance so patients can have a customized experience at any time at home, according to a May 5 news release. Motion tracking technology guides patients through their physical therapy regimens and provides data for clinicians.

A randomized control trial showed Aria Home physical therapy decreased readmissions, outpatient visits, home health visits and emergency visits. The trial also found Aria saved patients an average of $2,745.

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.
