Deep dives
Defining high and low-value care in musculoskeletal rehab and medicine
High-value care in musculoskeletal rehab and medicine focuses on delivering interventions that provide benefits where the clinical benefits outweigh the costs. This includes aligning interventions with patient values, being cost-effective, reducing waste, and ensuring high quality. Low-value care, on the other hand, may involve uncertain evidence, lack of cost-effectiveness, and interventions that do not align with patient values leading to challenges in defining what truly constitutes high value.
