The $980 Billion Problem No One Has Solved — Until Now

It’s time for a fundamentally different approach: one that’s physician-led, transparently priced, and built for the way employers, practices, and patients actually need care to work.

Musculoskeletal care is the #1 cost driver for self-insured employers, affecting nearly 1 in 3 Americans and consuming nearly a trillion dollars annually in treatment costs and lost productivity. 

Employers have invested in Centers of Excellence and virtual therapy, yet MSK spend continues climbing by double digits year over year. 

The reason? 

A massive, unmanaged gap in low and medium-acuity MSK care that’s flooding emergency rooms, generating unnecessary imaging, and routing employees to the surgeon’s office when conservative care would deliver better outcomes at a fraction of the cost.

MSK Track

A New Part of RosettaFest

As part of the larger RosettaFest program, the MSK Track brings together the physicians, innovators, employers, and benefit advisors who are rewriting the rules of musculoskeletal care delivery. From 24/7 injury triage to bundled direct-pay pricing to national physician networks — this track is where the full continuum of MSK solutions comes together.

Whether you’re an employer looking to finally bend the MSK cost curve, a TPA seeking streamlined care discovery for your clients, or an orthopedic practice ready to unlock new revenue through direct contracting — this track was built for you.

Sessions will feature a dynamic lineup of MSK physicians, specialty care innovators, and tech solution providers exploring practical, market-ready strategies across the full spectrum of musculoskeletal care — including orthopedics, spine, sports medicine, pain management, physical therapy, and rehabilitation.

Nashville. July 29–31 The MSK Strategy Gets Real

The employers who win on MSK costs won’t do it with another point solution or another virtual-first band-aid. They’ll do it by connecting directly with the physicians who deliver the care — through transparent pricing, 24/7 access, and a national network purpose-built to eliminate every unnecessary dollar and delay between injury and recovery.

This is that strategy.
These are the people building it.
And this is your seat at the table.
