Hospitals are now accountable for what happens after discharge.
Readmissions, ED visits, SNF utilization, and PROM performance directly impact margins and performance metrics.
Yet most systems lack the infrastructure to manage patient optimization before surgery and engagement after discharge. OptiBMIze provides that missing layer.
We act as an extension of your care continuum, before surgery and through recovery, without adding burden to your staff.
Telling a patient to “lose weight” is not a clinical plan. OptiBMIze combines connected weight tracking and registered dietitian care into a structured, measurable preoperative pathway.
Continuous monitoring of weight, pain scores, mobility, and adherence helps identify risk early and escalate before complications turn into admissions.
Patients receive structured guidance and real-time support instead of defaulting to the ED for post-operative concerns.
Better preoperative conditioning and structured recovery support improve functional readiness and safe discharge home.
Consistent engagement, exercise adherence, and recovery tracking drive measurable improvements in patient-reported outcomes.
The TEAMs model changes the economics of surgical care. Outcomes across the full episode now determine performance.
Complications, readmissions, and post-acute utilization are no longer isolated clinical events. They are financial events.
OptiBMIze strengthens performance across the full surgical episode by:
This protects margins while improving patient outcomes.
OptiBMIze helps orthopedic practices turn an unsolved problem, patients who need surgery but aren’t yet optimized, into structured, measurable progress.
Our clinical program combines connected monitoring, registered dietitian care, and ongoing patient engagement to help patients safely reduce BMI, improve mobility, and arrive prepared for surgery.
The result is healthier patients, fewer delayed cases, and better outcomes, without adding work to your staff.
OptiBMIze integrates alongside your surgical workflow so your team can stay focused on surgery while we manage the months of preparation that happen between visits.
Registered dietitians guide patients through sustainable weight reduction designed specifically for surgical readiness. Progress is tracked through connected monitoring so surgeons receive patients who are prepared, optimized, and ready for surgery.
Patients who were previously told to “lose weight first” now have a clear pathway to qualify for surgery. OptiBMIze helps convert stalled consults into future procedures.
Improved metabolic health and sustainable weight reduction help reduce modifiable surgical risk factors, allowing patients to enter surgery healthier and better prepared.
Weight trends, recovery signals, and patient engagement are tracked continuously so issues can be identified early instead of surfacing after complications occur.
When patients arrive prepared for surgery, schedules become more predictable. OptiBMIze helps reduce delayed procedures and improves overall case flow.
OptiBMIze manages enrollment, monitoring, coaching, and patient coordination so your clinical team doesn’t carry the operational burden.
No Additional Staff.
No Workflow Disruption.
No Extra Clinic Time
Let us help your health system improve surgical readiness, reduce readmissions, and support patient recovery after discharge.
OptiBMIze provides structured patient optimization and remote monitoring across the full episode of care. Contact us to learn more or schedule a system demo.
OptiBMIze helps your health system support patients who need optimization before or after surgery.When a patient does not yet meet BMI or metabolic readiness criteria, your team can refer them to OptiBMIze for Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM).
Our clinical team enrolls the patient and provides structured support between visits, including nutrition guidance, accountability check-ins, and objective weight tracking through connected monitoring devices.
Patients steadily progress toward surgical readiness while your practice maintains clear visibility into their progress.
For patients undergoing rehabilitation or physical therapy, OptiBMIze also supports Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM), allowing clinicians to track adherence to prescribed exercise programs and monitor recovery between visits.
Together, our RPM and RTM clinical program allows your care team to extend clinical oversight beyond the office while keeping patients engaged, accountable, and progressing toward better outcomes.
Many health systems care for patients who need surgery but do not yet meet BMI or metabolic readiness criteria. Simply advising patients to “lose weight” often leaves them without the structure, monitoring, or support needed to succeed.
OptiBMIze provides the infrastructure to support these patients between visits. Through dietitian-led care, connected health monitoring, and ongoing engagement, we help patients safely progress toward surgical readiness while giving care teams clear visibility into their progress.
This allows health systems to better prepare patients for surgery, improve outcomes across the episode of care, and extend clinical support beyond the clinic without adding additional burden to internal staff.
Health systems typically see stronger patient engagement and more consistent progress toward surgical readiness and recovery goals. Instead of patients falling out of care after being told to lose weight or improve their health,
OptiBMIze keeps them connected to a structured care pathway between visits.
Through continuous monitoring, regular care team check-ins, and connected health data, clinicians gain better visibility into patient progress outside the clinic. This helps health systems support safer surgical preparation, improve recovery oversight, and reduce gaps in care across the full episode.
OptiBMIze programs may qualify for reimbursement through Remote Physiologic Monitoring (RPM) or Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) when program requirements are met.
These CMS programs allow providers to bill for monitoring and supporting patients between visits.
Common RPM CPT codes:
99453, 99454, 99457, 99458
Common RTM CPT codes:
98975, 98977, 98980, 98981
Based on 2026 CMS national averages, practices may see approximately:
• ~$20–$25 one-time onboarding reimbursement
• ~$200+ per patient per month when monitoring requirements are met
OptiBMIze supports patient engagement, monitoring, and documentation so your practice can bill these services through its existing workflow.
Reimbursement varies based on payer mix and location.
There is no upfront investment required by your health group to begin offering OptiBMIze to your patients!
The program is designed to integrate into existing surgical workflows without requiring new staff, new clinic infrastructure, or operational changes.
We can provide a simple overview of how the program would operate within your current system.
Very little! Your team simply identifies patients who would benefit from optimization before surgery. Once the patient is referred, OptiBMIze handles enrollment, monitoring, and patient engagement.
We act as an extension of your care team, supporting patients between visits without adding workload to your staff.
Patients work directly with the OptiBMIze care team!
This may include registered dietitians, care coordinators, and clinical oversight professionals who provide ongoing support, education, and accountability.
Your practice stays informed about patient progress while remaining focused on surgical care.
Your doctos can begin referring patients shortly after onboarding. During the appointment, your medical assistant enrolls the patient through your dedicated practice admin web portal.
The patient immediately receives a secure text message with onboarding instructions and a link to download the OptiBMIze mobile app on either the App Store/Google Play Store. Practices may choose to provide patients with a smart ceulluar weight scale at the end of the visit, or OptiBMIze can ship the device directly to the patient after enrollment.
Once the patient downloads the app, an OptiBMIze care coordinator connects with the patient to schedule an initial consultation. During this conversation, the care team learns about the patient’s current health status, goals, and challenges.
From there, a personalized support plan is created for the patient, and ongoing engagement, monitoring, and progress updates are managed between visits while keeping your practice informed.
