90210 Surgery Medical Center, HealthLoop partner for total joint program: 5 key notes

The 90210 Surgery Medical Center in Beverly Hills, Calif., selected HealthLoop for orthopedic patient engagement programs.

"As a nurse working in the medical field for 30 years, it's completely amazing that our patients are having total joint replacement and going home the same afternoon," said Benita Tapia, RN, CASC, chief administrator for the surgery center. "I can see we've come a long way in the advancement of this type of surgery."

Here are five key notes:

1. Brad Penenberg, MD, began performing total joint replacements in the outpatient setting with minimally invasive techniques, and his patients return home the same day. The surgery center is teaming with HealthLoop for technology-driven patient service.

2. The HealthLoop program sends custom educational information, reinforcement materials and reminders to patients via email or text messages to optimize patient education, preparation, recovery and improved outcomes.

3. In addition to orthopedics and total joint replacements, the surgery center includes general surgery, gynecology, ophthalmology, spine surgery and pain management. There are four orthopedic surgeons involved with the center.

4. The surgery center includes real-time high definition imaging cameras, laser systems and implants at the facility, some of which aren't available at other hospitals in the area.

5. Some of the physicians are involved in the IV League Special of The Doctors TV Show which examines patient progress on new surgical procedures at the center.
