The difference between SpineOS and EasySpine: EasySpine is what patients see; SpineOS is the clinician workspace it reports into — measurement, planning, documentation, and monitoring for the whole episode.
Cobb, SVA, PI, PT, SS, LL, and PI–LL, computed live as you drop landmarks — with guided workflows and every value reviewed and confirmed by you.
Pfirrmann, Modic, and stenosis grading in a structured review queue — every candidate finding is adjudicated by the clinician before it goes anywhere.
Medicare contractor guidance names undocumented conservative care as the most common fusion denial reason — SpineOS assembles the dated record: conservative care, reviewed imaging, PROMs, and alignment, in one medical-necessity packet that supports your documentation.
Remote therapeutic monitoring reports for CPT 98975–98981, with the 16-day rule tracked from real patient check-in data.
ODI, NDI, and 12 more instruments, answered on the patient's phone and interpreted with MCID-aware trends.
EasySpine is free for patients. SpineOS is sold to spine service lines as an annual platform subscription — ask what it costs for your practice.
Plain-language answers to the questions patients and spine teams actually search for. Your own surgeon's instructions always override anything you read here.
Most care teams want a handful of signals: pain (0–10), how much you're walking, wound status, sleep, and any new symptoms. Tracking them daily turns scattered notes into a trend you can bring to follow-up visits. Your own surgeon's instructions always come first. Learn more →
Most surgeons encourage walking early and often — short, frequent walks typically help recovery more than one long walk. Research in lumbar fusion patients has used a benchmark of roughly 3,500 steps a day, but the right amount for you is whatever your surgeon sets. EasySpine fills in your walking automatically from Apple Health so you never have to count. Learn more →
Mild redness, swelling, and itching are common early in healing. Increasing redness or warmth, new drainage, wound edges opening, or a fever are reasons to call your care team promptly. Daily wound photos help your care team watch for signs of infection between visits. When in doubt, call — that's what they're there for. Learn more →
There's no universal date. Most surgeons look for three gates: you're off narcotic pain medication, you can move well enough to brake and check blind spots, and your surgeon has explicitly cleared you. Ask at a follow-up visit before you get behind the wheel. Learn more →
Most people do best on their back with a pillow under the knees, or on their side with a pillow between the knees. The log-roll technique — moving shoulders and hips together — typically makes getting in and out of bed easier. Follow your surgeon's positioning instructions over any general advice. Learn more →
EasySpine is free, and no — you don't need your clinic to use it. Self-guided mode gives you full tracking with your data kept on your phone. If your surgeon's practice uses SpineOS, clinic-linked mode lets your care team see your check-ins, wound photos, and outcome scores. The iPhone app is in early-access beta; the web portal works today. Learn more →
In self-guided mode, your tracking data stays on your device — it isn't sent to us at all. In clinic-linked mode, your data lives in your clinic's tenant-isolated workspace protected by Row-Level Security and audit trails, and wound photos are visible only to your care team. Learn more →
SpineOS is the clinician workspace behind EasySpine: X-ray measurement with guided landmarking, structured MRI/CT finding review, prior-authorization evidence packets, RTM documentation reports, PROM collection, and recovery monitoring with an alert inbox. Learn more →
The most common reason fusion prior authorizations are denied is undocumented conservative care. SpineOS assembles the dated record — conservative-care history, clinician-reviewed imaging findings, outcome scores, and alignment measurements — into a medical-necessity evidence packet. It supports your documentation; it doesn't approve coverage or guarantee a decision. Learn more →
Spine practices document remote therapeutic monitoring under CPT 98975, 98977, 98980, and 98981. The 16-day rule — at least sixteen days of patient data in a 30-day period — governs the monitoring codes. SpineOS generates the RTM documentation report from patient check-in data. Learn more →
Five minutes now gives you a trend for every follow-up visit later. Free, private, and yours — with or without a clinic.
