About us

Recovery is a team effort. We equip the team.

Associated Medical provides recovery technologies and support programs that reduce opioid reliance, improve healing, accelerate recovery, and support the families carrying it alongside the patient.

What we believe

Three positions everything else follows from

01
Pain control should not mean opioid dependence
Effective non-drug pain management exists. Our job is making it practical to prescribe, simple to use at home, and covered by the plan — because a therapy nobody can order is not an alternative to anything.
02
Most of recovery happens at home
The clinic visit is one hour a week. We equip the other 167 — the patient, the devices, and the family doing the daily work with no training and no warning.
03
Outcomes should be visible
Providers and payers deserve to see adherence and progress rather than guess at it. Every program we run documents what actually happened, per patient.

What we stand behind

What recovery should look like

Four commitments behind every technology and program we provide.

Reduce opioid reliance

Non-drug pain management that keeps patients comfortable without escalating prescriptions.

  • Cold compression therapy that manages post-surgical pain at the source
  • Documented opioid-sparing outcomes providers can prescribe with confidence
  • Structured weaning support integrated into recovery protocols

Improve healing

Technologies that measurably accelerate tissue repair and reduce complications.

  • Sustained acoustic medicine (wearable ultrasound) for deep-tissue healing
  • Circulation and edema control that prevents setbacks
  • Protocols matched to procedure and healing phase

Accelerate recovery

Shorter time from procedure to full function, tracked and supported at every step.

  • Recovery timelines built around functional milestones, not guesswork
  • Devices delivered and fitted before surgery day
  • Adherence support that keeps recovery on schedule

Support families

Education and tools for the people carrying the recovery alongside the patient.

  • Plain-language guides for caregivers from day one
  • Insurance and ordering handled without burdening the family
  • A human support team that answers the phone

How it works

How the economics work

A managed recovery program is a front-loaded cost against three back-loaded ones.

  1. 1

    Spend moves earlier

    Equipment and fitting are paid once, before the procedure, instead of reacting to a complication later.

  2. 2

    Pharmacy exposure drops

    Non-drug pain control reduces opioid fills — and the long-tail claims that follow dependence.

  3. 3

    Complications get avoided, not treated

    Edema and mobility control cut the readmissions and revisions that dominate recovery cost.

  4. 4

    You get the documentation

    Per-patient utilization and milestone data, auditable, rather than an invoice with no evidence behind it.

Whether you prescribe recovery, pay for it, or are about to go through one — start with a conversation rather than a catalog.
