Case Studies

Dr. Edo Zylstra runs an outpatient rehab clinic like no other. At KinetaCare, every patient pays cash only, and every referral comes from word-of-mouth. That’s a business model built entirely on pure clinical success and patient enthusiasm.

When patients look at their objective progress reports, they know they’re getting better. There’s no guessing whether patients are progressing and no question about what’s making the difference. The strongest driver of his incredible compliance rate is the MCU’s evidence-based, objective measurement.

“For neck rehab, the MCU does what TheraBands and manual therapy can’t do. Those other techniques can’t provide a graded resistance with consistent weight all the way through the range of motion. And the MCU provides objective feedback with graphs and data all shown in the progress reports," says Perkins.

The rehab team at London Road Community Hospital are successfully restoring one patient’s strength and function for Return to Work after COVID-19. PrimusRS plays an important role in dosing the correct resistance and providing critical data for patient progress.

“BTE’s Primus increases revenue and pays for itself in short order." The PrimusRS allows the clinic to capitalize on higher-yielding CPT codes, and bill for more units. Aside from its earning potential, therapists and patients feel more engaged with the new equipment.

Marla Tappy's unique approach for creating a cash-pay clinic removes the frustration of insurance billing. She keeps her clients happy with the clinically superior results and engaging experience of the Eccentron.

“We have to keep costs low, get results and keep the referral source happy, but we also have to keep the patient happy,” says Rich. “Using Primus for effort measurement allows us to do both.

“Unlike all the other testing methods I’ve seen and used in the past, BTE’s objective technology delivers consistent, accurate results.... No other pre-employment testing can offer that. Today’s companies need that, and they are willing to pay for it,” says Susy.

See how NovaCare keeps clients engaged, precisely simulates job tasks for industrial rehab, and shows real proof of progress with objective reporting. “I believe patients are coming back to the center more often when they work with Primus,” Rich states.

Recently, Ron Courson, ATC, PT, NREMT-I, CSCS, Director of Sports Medicine for University of Georgia, a long-time BTE user and advocate - came to us with an incredible success story. Showing just what an impact BTE can make. In this case, the story was Todd Gurley. And Todd was so excited about his recovery with BTE, that he wanted to share his story.

"The eight-week study demonstrated remarkably positive outcomes from eccentric training on the Eccentron for knee osteoarthritis patients. They are getting back to activities they couldn’t do previously.” - Dr. Michael Bade

"Physicians get happy patients with Eccentron, and so do we.” Eccentron brought a surge of referrals, patient engagement, and business growth for Vereen Rehabilitation Center. They even increased their staff from 18 to 37 full-time clinicians.
