Description

Patient education and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are becoming increasingly important in delivering high-quality, value-based orthopaedic care—but how can surgeons integrate these tools without adding unnecessary burden to patients or practice workflows?

Join a panel of orthopaedic leaders as they discuss practical strategies for improving patient engagement, implementing PROMs efficiently, and using patient-reported data to support meaningful shared decision-making in the clinic. Through real-world examples and interactive discussion, faculty will explore the evolving role of digital tools, AAOS resources, and AI-driven technologies in enhancing patient care while maintaining clinical judgment.

Whether you're beginning to incorporate PROMs into your practice or looking to optimize existing workflows, this webinar will provide actionable insights you can apply immediately.

Learning Objectives

• Identify practical strategies to improve patient education and engagement before and during orthopaedic clinical visits using digital resources and evidence-based tools.
• Describe best practices for implementing patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) into clinical workflows while minimizing burden on patients and healthcare teams.
• Apply PROM data to facilitate shared decision-making and support patient-centered treatment discussions in orthopaedic practice.
• Discuss the evolving role of PROMs, digital health technologies, and artificial intelligence in advancing value-based orthopaedic care while preserving clinical judgment.
