In the past year, there have been a number of very significant clinical changes that affect the way we diagnose, treat, and rehabilitate sports injuries incurred by elite athletes, weekend warriors, and patients with active lifestyles.

This comprehensive update provides education for state-of-the-art approaches to the diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation, and prevention of sports injuries. The course creates a unique opportunity to hear about these changes directly from world-renowned physician specialists (physiatrists, orthopedists, radiologists); team physicians and athletic trainers for the Boston Red Sox, New England Revolution, and New England Patriots; and physical therapists on the cutting edge of rehabilitation.

The Orthopedic Value-Based Care (OVBC) conference, now in its 9th year, has clearly evolved into a central gathering for stakeholders across the orthopedic ecosystem. With its mission to bring together orthopedic surgeons, anesthesiologists, healthcare executives, nurses, medical device representatives, physical therapists, pharmaceutical leaders, payers, and consultants, the focus remains on fostering collaboration around value-based care and innovation in musculoskeletal (MSK) health.

This year holds particular significance due to the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services' (CMS) upcoming 2026 mandatory bundle. This bundle encompasses lower joint surgery, hip fractures, spinal fusion, coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), and colorectal procedures. As such, the event will be structured around preparing practices for this regulatory shift.

The conference’s approach this year is highly pragmatic, aiming to provide participants with actionable tools rather than just academic knowledge. Notably, Thursday's schedule includes two critical boot camps. The first will address the TEAM (Total Episode of Advanced Management) bundle, where representatives from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) will answer questions. The second will focus on perioperative care in 2025 and provide insights on managing care within the TEAM framework.

By emphasizing a "take action" mindset, OVBC is positioning itself as a practical, solutions-focused event that equips attendees with the necessary steps to align their practices with the evolving healthcare landscape. This hands-on approach will likely be invaluable for professionals seeking to implement concrete strategies in preparation for the CMS changes and the broader shift toward value-based care in orthopedics.

PainConnect offers a patient-centered approach to pain care tailored to meet the diverse needs of healthcare professionals. PainConnect fosters a dynamic learning environment, emphasizing holistic care and innovation. Join us to transform pain care through interdisciplinary collaboration and compassionate patient care.

Nationally, over 2 million people sustain osteoporotic fracture annually - a number projected to dramatically increase as our population ages. However, osteoporosis prevention and treatment, even after fracture, is underutilized and guidelines have recently evolved. Controversies surrounding optimal nutrition, who to evaluate and treat, available medications and other therapies will be discussed. Clinicians should appreciate the variety of conditions that contribute to fracture risk and that approaches to reduce osteoporosis continue to be under implemented.
