Central Nebraska Orthopedics

What Central Nebraska Orthopedics does

Central Nebraska Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, PC is an independent private orthopedic practice headquartered in Grand Island, Nebraska, operating nine clinic locations across central Nebraska including Hastings, Aurora, Broken Bow, Cozad, Gothenburg, Ord, St. Paul, and Superior. The practice delivers comprehensive orthopedic and sports medicine services across the musculoskeletal spectrum — hand and wrist, shoulder, hip, knee, foot and ankle, joint replacement, spine surgery, and sports medicine — and serves patients of all ages from pediatrics to elderly, including those with workplace injuries covered under Workers' Compensation.

The practice is staffed by 8 board-certified orthopedic surgeons, several with fellowship training from elite institutions including the Mayo Clinic, Twin Cities Spine Center, and University of Kentucky, supported by 5 physician assistants. Clinical technology centers on the VELYS Robotic-Assisted Solution for knee replacement (integrated with the ATTUNE Knee System), in-clinic MRI/X-ray/ultrasound diagnostics, arthroscopic minimally invasive techniques, and NextGen Electronic Medical Records. Ambulatory surgical procedures are performed at the Grand Island Surgical Center, in which all physicians hold ownership stakes, alongside surgical privileges at CHI Health St. Francis, Mary Lanning Healthcare, and several regional critical access hospitals.

The business model is fee-for-service clinical revenue under insurance-based billing. The practice contracts with major payers including Medicare, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Nebraska, Midlands Choice, United Health Care, Coventry, Aetna, and Medicaid, submitting claims on behalf of patients and billing for deductibles and co-payments. Surgical balances are due within 30 days. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via phone-scheduled appointments with same-day or next-day availability for acute injuries, complemented by physician referral networks and modest digital marketing through Facebook, Instagram, and a blog. There is no external investment, no parent company, and no funding history; the practice is owned and operated by its physician partners.
