For Clinics, Health Systems, and Care Teams

Mobility and Independence

Multiple national surveys show that adults increasingly view mobility and day-to-day independence as essential components of quality of life.

A 2025 national survey found that two out of three Americans prioritize independence above longevity.

Among adults 65+, 78% stated that maintaining independence is a higher priority than extending lifespan.

In another survey, 94% of older adults reported that staying active in their homes and communities is central to their sense of well-being.

These findings highlight why many clinics are paying closer attention to functional mobility as part of whole-person care.

About Moviq Health

Moviq Health is a clinical biomechanics testing service that delivers objective data and standardized reports to clinics. We help clinicians quantify movement using repeatable physical performance metrics and reference comparisons to support documentation, longitudinal tracking, and care planning.
Moviq Health was created to close a widespread gap in patient care: patients care deeply about movement and independence, yet clinicians have limited data beyond observation and questionnaires.

That mismatch creates a blind spot between what patients want to discuss and what clinicians can reliably quantify, often leading to less confident conversations, weaker alignment on priorities, and a poorer care experience.

Moviq Health solves this blind spot by providing shared, objective reference points for both providers and patients. We help clinicians document and communicate mobility status and progress more clearly, while helping patients understand their mobility, stay engaged, and align on priorities. This strengthens the provider-patient relationship and improves the overall care experience.
Moviq Health partners with primary care, geriatrics, orthopedics, neurology, PM&R, and other specialties where mobility plays a vital role in patient care.
Our workflow mirrors what clinicians already familiar with labs and imaging. Clinics refer patients through a secure portal, Moviq Health conducts the assessment, and we return a standardized report of their biomechanical profile.

What We Measure

Moviq Health measures mobility across three primary domains: Gait, Strength & Power, and Balance & Stability. Together, these domains capture how efficiently you move, how much force you can produce, and how well you control your body in standing and transitional tasks.
Each Moviq Health assessment captures 60 or more biomechanical metrics across gait, strength and power, and balance and stability. These include measures of speed, symmetry, timing, force production, and stability, providing a detailed snapshot of how you move and where risk is coming from.
Clinicians can use these measurements in practice to create an objective baseline of mobility, quickly see which domain is most limited, and communicate findings to patients in a clear, visual way. They also support consistent follow up by making it easier to compare results over time, document measurable change, and align care plans, education, and referrals around the specific movement limitations identified in the assessment.
Moviq Health combines three measurement technologies to capture mobility with precision. Our 3D gait capture system uses multiple infrared cameras to quantify gait parameters and joint kinematics. We also use a high-resolution dual force plate, the same class of equipment used by elite sports organizations, to measure force and power during functional tasks. For balance, we use a multidirectional platform that measures center of pressure displacement across different conditions, helping characterize stability and postural control.

Clinical Workflow

Clinics submit referrals through a secure portal. Moviq Health manages scheduling, conducts the assessment, and returns the information summary to the clinic within 48 hours.
Clinics refer adults who would benefit from a structured review of their mobility. For example, individuals experiencing changes in walking, balance concerns, post-surgical recovery, or those who need a mobility baseline for ongoing care.
Moviq Health provides objective mobility measurements and visual summaries. Clinicians interpret the information independently and determine any next steps according to their own judgment.
Many value-based care programs emphasize functional outcomes and preventive monitoring. Moviq Health’s report can be incorporated by clinics into their broader efforts to understand patient function over time.

Testing Process

All protocols are based on established research methods for measuring human movement.
Yes. Assessments are low exertion and are designed to accommodate individuals with limited mobility.
Typically 30–45 minutes from arrival to completion.
Frequency varies by clinic. Some perform annual assessments for preventive purposes, while others schedule them more often during rehabilitation or recovery. Clinicians determine appropriate timing.

Report and Information

Reports include biomechanical metrics, reference range, and insight.
We have a fast turnaround time of 48 hours after testing because the measurements are captured in real time. We immediately upload the results as soon as they are reviewed by a Doctor of Physical Therapy.
Moviq Health provides PDFs and structured data downloads. Custom EMR integrations may be explored with partner clinics.
Moviq Health follows HIPAA-aligned practices including encryption, secure storage, audit logs, and role-based access controls.

Partnership and Operations

Clinics partner through an annual service agreement that includes assessments, informational summaries, analytics displays, and workflow support. No equipment purchases are required.
Moviq Health provides workflow setup assistance, training, patient communication templates, and dedicated partner support.
Clinics send referrals, and Moviq Health handles outreach, scheduling, reminders, and visit coordination.
Moviq Health currently operates in Las Vegas, Nevada, with expansion driven by partner interest.

Practice Value and ROI

Moviq Health allows clinics to offer a structured mobility assessment service without added equipment or staffing requirements. Practices may use this service to enhance engagement, support preventive initiatives, or differentiate their care model.
Many clinics find that patients appreciate having mobility information to refer to over time. This can encourage ongoing follow-up at intervals defined by the clinician.
Because mobility is closely associated with independence and long-term function, many clinics incorporate Moviq Health information into their preventive and functional outcome initiatives. Moviq Health does not define risk, pathways, or clinical decisions.
Practices often see meaningful utilization early because Moviq Health requires no capital investment and minimal workflow changes.
Many partner clinics report strong engagement and positive financial returns of 160% to 250%. Actual results vary by practice.
