The system comprises comprises a 12-movement musculoskeletal screen, which uses marker-less 3D motion capture technology to help trainers provide more personalized rehabilitation plans for patients.
In addition to Cerner’s motion system and primary and specialty care services, the centers will also offer access to an on-site pharmacy and fitness center. The first VIA Center broke ground at Wellpoint Community at Hampton Cove Huntsville, Ala., in April.
