New Landscape Review from Johns Hopkins and American Specialty Health Highlights Growing Role of Physical and Occupational Therapy in Workforce Health

▤ Summary

American Specialty Health and Johns Hopkins published a review on the growing role of physical and occupational therapy in treating musculoskeletal disorders. The paper argues that therapy-first care can improve outcomes, reduce costs, and help workers return to work faster. It also highlights how employers and health plans can lower spending by increasing early access to evidence-based conservative care. ASH positions its clinical and digital MSK offerings as part of that broader shift toward more connected therapy pathways.
