UBC Orthopedic Reconstruction Program
Understanding UBC’s Orthopedic Reconstruction Program and How It Can Benefit You
When it comes to orthopedic care, especially for those in need of reconstructive surgery, access to specialized and comprehensive treatment programs is crucial. One of the most renowned in British Columbia is the University of British Columbia’s Orthopedic Reconstruction Program, offering cutting-edge treatments and rehabilitation for patients dealing with complex joint and bone issues. Through this program, UBC offers covered physiotherapy services for those who have undergone Knee and Hip replacements.
At Haven Home Physio, we collaborate with this program to offer rehabilitation services directly billed at no cost to you.
What is UBC’s Orthopedic Reconstruction Program?
UBC’s Orthopedic Reconstruction Program (Ortho Recon) is a specialized initiative that focuses on complex orthopedic surgeries, particularly joint reconstructions. This program is designed for patients with severe joint degeneration, deformities, and post-traumatic injuries that require surgical intervention. Patients undergoing procedures like total joint replacements or revision surgeries benefit from the expertise of UBC’s surgeons and rehabilitation teams.
Physiotherapy Coverage Through UBC’s Program
One of the most significant advantages of the Ortho Recon Program is that it fully covers physiotherapy sessions post-surgery, ensuring you get the rehabilitation care you need at no additional cost. The program includes:
- Up to 3 fully covered physiotherapy visits for hip replacements
- Up to 12 fully covered physiotherapy visits for knee replacements
- Up to 6 fully covered physiotherapy visits for knee manipulations
At Haven Home Physio, we direct bill for these services, meaning there’s no out-of-pocket cost for you. You can focus entirely on your recovery while we handle the logistics.
The Importance of Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
After orthopedic surgery, rehabilitation plays a critical role in regaining mobility, minimizing pain, and restoring your ability to perform daily tasks. UBC’s Orthopedic Reconstruction Program ensures that patients receive high-quality, hospital-based rehab. However, ongoing physiotherapy is often necessary once you’re discharged to maintain progress and prevent complications.
At Haven Home Physio, we bring this essential care directly to your home, so you can recover comfortably and without the hassle of traveling to a clinic. Our team specializes in post-operative physiotherapy and works closely with you to design a recovery plan that aligns with the procedure you’ve undergone and your personal goals.
