Prizm Development, Inc., was founded 30 years ago in 1995 by Bob Reznik, who holds an MBA specialized in healthcare and quality management systems. Reznik has authored four books on healthcare subjects and is a nationally recognized expert and speaker on center of excellence development. He was chosen by the American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS), World Research Group, Spinal Intervention Society, Becker’s ASC Conferences, and many other groups, as a speaker on center of excellence development.
Prizm has been in business for over 30 years, longer than any other spine development company or consultancy. Prizm’s innovative multidisciplinary spine team concept for spine care — that combines the core disciplines of spine surgeons working closely with physical medicine & rehabilitation MDs and spine therapists — was developed in 1996 based on more than 500 one-on-one interviews with national health insurance companies and large employers that desired a center of excellence approach for spine care rather than fragmented silos of care based on physician training silo. Reznik’s multidisciplinary spine team model has been widely copied by other consulting companies and spine groups over the past 20 years. Reznik and Prizm has been cited as a trend leader in the textbook, Redefining Healthcare, which examines those entities that are leading the evolution of healthcare in the United States.
With nearly 40 years experience in spine center development, no one in the world has as much experience in the niche of spine center development. In 1986, Reznik directed the development of the first and largest spine center in the U.S. for its first nine years, with the spine center being featured by NBC Today Show, USA Today, Fortune Magazine and many national women’s magazines. That center grew rapidly from three physicians into the nation’s largest spine center, which has since been widely copied by other physician groups and hospitals across the world.
Over the past 30 years, Prizm has worked in 48 of the 50 states, developing destination centers for spine from Alaska to Maine, and California to Florida. These regional spine centers were successful in major markets like Newark, Dallas and Los Angeles as well as secondary markets like Augusta, Champaign, Reno and Savannah. Prizm spine centers in 1997 were also the first in the nation to publish clinical outcome report cards for spine that showed payors and employers the percent of patients receiving spine surgery, injections and therapy; patient satisfaction across seven metrics; use of drugs at intake and post treatment; and return to function across three metrics.
With each spine center development project, Prizm helped spine physicians and hospital systems create a spine service line that captured the local spine market, and improved the productivity and efficiency of physician spine care teams and ambulatory surgery centers treating spine, pain management, orthopedics and joint replacement.
Medical directors at large national health insurance companies were intrigued with the clinical outcomes report cards produced by Prizm spine centers and wanted to know where these regional spine centers were located. Consequently, 15 years ago in 2011 Prizm launched SpineCenterNetwork.com which featured the only list of credentialed spine centers in the United States.
Similarly with the launch of new artificial disc implants, Prizm launched CentersforArtificialDisc.com which featured spine surgeons who specialize in artificial disc replacement in the spine. The educational web site featured objective, unbiased information to consumers who wanted to know the pros and cons associated with this new motion preservation technology and which spine surgeons were trained to do artificial joint replacement.
Prizm spine centers of excellence assemble multidisciplinary care teams (surgeons, nonsurgeons, physical therapists and diagnostics) all under one roof. Some centers have been featured prominently by national media such as NBC Today Show, CBS This Morning, CNN, ABC Good Morning America, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, Fortune, Forbes, Good Housekeeping, Ladies Home Journal and Better Homes and Gardens. Specialty publications like Orthopaedic Technology Review, Becker’s ASC Review and Beckers Spine Review have featured several spine centers developed by Prizm as models for other physicians to emulate. As a small company with a strong existing client base of spine centers that are growing and expanding, Prizm is now highly selective with new development projects, taking on a limited number of engagements annually.
With the success of Prizm Development, Inc. the company launched a second healthcare company more than 10 years ago — Medingenuity LLC — that is 100% focused on business development for healthcare. Medingenuity (more information at Medingenuity.com) helps orthopedic surgeons, pain management physicians, general surgeons, urologists, ambulatory surgery centers and healthcare businesses with their marketing and business development. The company builds educational web sites for these specialties using intellectual property and proprietary methodologies that succeed in getting first page organic visibility on search engines like Google. In addition Medingenuity.com provides guidance to new start up companies in the healthcare field about branding, name development, service line marketing and trademark protection.
Recently in 2024, with Prizm increasingly involved with joint replacement centers of excellence, Prizm launched JointReplacementNetwork.com which provides educational content on knee replacement, hip replacement and shoulder replacement and those joint replacement centers that do a high volume of joint replacement surgeries using the most advanced techniques and robotic technology.
On the health side, over the last 20 years, Reznik has completed 4 marathons (26.2 miles), and more than 20 half marathons (13.1 miles).
