  • BACKGROUND: Arthroplasty payment traditionally includes 118 minutes for postoperative rounds and 69 minutes for postoperative office visits, amounting to 187 minutes and 7 work relative value units. Rapid recovery, ambulatory procedures, and bundled payments have altered the burden of care, with multiple studies showing an increase in physician work. Policy changes during the COVID-19 pandemic allow for precise documentation of patient touchpoints. We analyzed the duration of video, telephone, and text messaging to quantify modern arthroplasty work. METHODS: Consecutive primary hip, knee, and partial knee arthroplasties, performed 30 days before March 15, 2020 (date of practice closure), were included from a single institution, yielding 47 cases. We retrospectively quantified the duration of video telehealth documentation, telephone logs, and text messages over 90 days to calculate the postoperative work required in modern arthroplasty using descriptive statistics. RESULTS: An average of 9.4 touchpoints (2-14) by the surgeons occurred during the global period for this cohort, totaling 219 minutes (51-247 minutes). This included an average of 21 minutes of day-0 calls to family, 117 minutes for video visits, 52 minutes for phone calls, and 29 minutes for text messaging and wound photos. CONCLUSION: We found an undervaluation of 32 minutes of work. AAHKS leadership advocates for the fair payment of modern arthroplasty work. Cell phones have opened channels of contact that did not exist before, including phone accessibility, text messaging, and video calls. These data help defend against current payer efforts to cut work relative value units for arthroplasty. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: II.
