Outcome MD

OutcomeMD is a Los Angeles-based healthcare technology company that has developed an innovative outcome management and marketing system for healthcare providers. Founded by orthopedic surgeon Justin Saliman, MD, the company's platform leverages patient-reported outcomes (PROs) to improve patient care and provider performance across various medical specialties. The OutcomeMD system uses medically valid PRO measures to score and track patients' symptoms over time, providing a fitness tracker-like experience for patients and real-time data for healthcare providers to inform treatment decisions.

The platform aggregates patient scores, symptoms, confounding factor data, and electronic medical record (EMR) data to offer comprehensive insights. This approach not only enhances the shared medical decision-making process but also helps clinicians generate revenue by obtaining good outcomes, shifting focus from patient catering to patient care. OutcomeMD's system is designed to reduce complication rates, decrease overutilization of healthcare resources, and improve overall efficiency and effectiveness of care.

As of 2024, OutcomeMD has been working with clinicians, health systems, surgical centers, clinics, and hospitals across the US. The company's unique value proposition lies in its ability to financially benefit healthcare providers for actively tracking and utilizing patient-reported outcomes, which has catalyzed widespread adoption beyond research-focused usage to become integral in everyday clinical practice.
