Key Takeaways

  • Learn how validated prognostic risk tools can be used early in care to distinguish between patients at low risk of poor outcomes and those at medium or high risk
  • Why “one-size-fits-all” care does not work for musculoskeletal disorders
  • How stratified and hybrid models of care can be designed in real-world practice
  • How co-design with patients and clinicians improves implementation
