The University of Kansas Health System has partnered with HURT!, a mobile application you can access after hours to get free injury advice from orthopedic specialists. Go to PoweredByHurt.com/KansasHealthSystem and download the application to your mobile phone. Once registered, you can send photos, videos and messages to a HURT! orthopedic specialist and get a response within minutes. The HURT! experts will assess your situation and advise appropriate follow-up care with a network partner, a walk-in care location or an ER. Your information may be shared with the health system, and an orthopedic scheduler will contact you to make an appointment during business hours.
No medical advice or treatment is given via the app. HURT! links you with an orthopedic specialist in minutes to help you assess the severity of your injury, navigate the best option or book a follow-up with a qualified specialist near you. Please keep in mind that when using HURT! you are not communicating with health system employees. Nothing you share in the app will appear in MyChart or your medical records.
