Congress must pass the Telehealth Expansion Act (HR 1843/S 1001) to extend the Telehealth Safe Harbor for those with Health Savings Account (HSA)-eligible High Deductible Health Plans (HDHPs). The Telehealth Safe Harbor policy ensures millions of Americans with employment-based health coverage can access vital telehealth services without having to first meet their deductibles. Without Congressional action, this policy will end on December 31, threatening healthcare access for millions of Americans who receive their health coverage through HSA-eligible HDHPs.

⏳ In the last nearly 10 years, we've delivered more than 25 million personalized exercise therapy sessions and treated 1 million members to date. But those numbers are meaningless if our solutions aren't effective. That’s why we invest in validating our clinical and economic outcomes across published studies with leading academic institutions, which have shown significant reduction in opioid dependence, depression, anxiety, and surgeries. 🥇 Don’t just take our word for it. An independent report from the Peterson Health Technology Institute found that physical therapist-guided solutions like Hinge Health reduce pain, improve outcomes, and save on healthcare costs. We stand behind the report’s conclusion that virtual MSK care provides “clinically-meaningful improvements in pain and function” compared to status quo care. 🏗 And we’re not stopping here. We’re committed to continuously building, innovating, and obsessively validating our product with clinical studies to keep improving lives and setting new standards in MSK care. More to come soon!
