About Signature Direct
Signature Orthopedics’ direct care program is an innovative healthcare service that provides high-quality, cost-effective solutions for employers and employees. We offer set rates per visit and bundled package rates based on expected costs for clinically defined periods of orthopedic care. This program reduces costs to self-insured employers without submitting claims to insurance.
Signature Orthopedics manages everything related to the care period, from selecting a physician and scheduling appointments to gathering medical records and coordinating logistics and follow-up visits. This reduces unnecessary stress for the patient and ensures appropriate post-surgical care. It can also shorten the timeline for appointments and surgery through coordinated care.

- Total Hip Replacement (Outpatient)
- Total Knee Replacement (Outpatient)
- Knee Arthroscopy - Meniscectomy

- Carpal Tunnel (In-Office)
