Orthopedic Surgeon Advisor

Gait IQ is transforming how health systems detect and prevent functional decline by turning a standard iPad or iPhone camera into a clinical-grade gait lab. Every year, 30% of adults over 65 fall, leading to more than $100 billion in healthcare costs. Most falls happen before anyone is classified as "frail", yet today's healthcare system doesn't know how to intervene early. Our platform enables providers to conduct a 2-minute, AI-powered gait test during routine primary care visits. A simple 4–5 second walk, captured on video, is analyzed via our neural network engine to detect gait asymmetries, joint instability, and fall risk. The results are presented on a clinical dashboard for early intervention. We’re launching a pilot with a large, physician-led primary care group that serves over one million Medicare Advantage patients under a value-based care model. The pilot has executive sponsorship and will be performed in collaboration with three of their largest clinics. How It Work Video-Based Gait Capture : Nurses or MAs use an iPad or iPhone to record a 4–5 second walk. AI-Powered Analysis : Our platform runs seven neural networks in the cloud to generate a comprehensive 3D gait assessment. Clinical Dashboard : Visual results, gait phase analysis, and joint-level deviations help physicians act early. Reimbursement Ready : Physicians in traditional fee for service Medicare can bill CPT code 96000. 510(k) Exempt : FDA confirmed our exempt classification as a prescription device intended for motion capture during physical therapy - accelerating adoption. Why This Matters Improved Patient Safety : Enables earlier detection of mobility decline, before the first fall occurs. Supports Value-Based Care : Helps risk-bearing organizations prevent injury, lower total cost of care, and avoid readmissions. Financial Alignment : Health systems and providers profit from every test reimbursed, with $46+ gross margin per scan. Scalable Model : No hardware, wearables, or training required. It fits directly into primary care visits and Annual Wellness Visits. Star Rating Impact : Data supports MA quality metrics that influence Medicare Advantage Star Ratings.
