Small Lifestyle Changes Can Make a Big Impact On Your Health

Orthopaedic Associates of Zanesville has instituted a new virtual lifestyle health solution, Prescribe FIT, designed specifically for orthopedic patients to decrease weight, reduce pain, improve mobility, and better prepare for and recover from surgery. We're embracing the use of this innovative technology to provide more comprehensive and consistent care for our patients.

The Prescribe FIT program was put In place with the goal of improving patient health through simple changes to nutrition, physical activity, and lifestyle. It's also covered by insurance through Medicare, Medicaid, and most commercial insurance carriers. Our team will check your benefits eligibility and financial responsibility for the program prior to your enrollment.

Prescribed by Us. Customized to You.

Prescribe FIT is a proven lifestyle program—not a fad diet or short-lived workout plan—that helps you improve your health at home by focusing on the root causes of your knee, hip, ankle, back and joint issues.

What Will Our Patients Experience?

You will routinely engage in appropriate exercise and learn about eating better. You will be provided a Bluetooth scale which pairs with a smart device to send daily body weight readings to your doctor.

You will also be matched with a Care Coordinator for supportive conversations and personalized recommendations to support healthy lifestyle changes and a reduction or prevention of chronic conditions.

How It Works: It’s as Easy as 1-2-3!
