About

David F. Gregory is a leading researcher in orthopedic surgery and healthcare economics, with a focus on robotic-assisted arthroplasty and value-based care. His work centers on optimizing surgical outcomes and cost-efficiency in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), particularly through the integration of robotic-arm assisted technologies. Gregory’s most cited study, "Healthcare Utilization and Payer Cost Analysis of Robotic-Arm Assisted Total Knee Arthroplasty at 30-, 60-, and 90-Days" (2019, 6 citations), provides critical insights into intra-episode cost trends and discharge patterns, comparing robotic-assisted and manual TKA techniques. This research has significant implications for streamlining care pathways and reducing payer burdens, demonstrating that robotic assistance can lower index costs and improve resource allocation. Gregory’s contributions are pivotal in bridging surgical innovation with healthcare policy, offering evidence-based strategies to enhance patient outcomes while controlling expenditures. His work is widely referenced by clinicians and administrators seeking to implement cost-effective, high-quality orthopedic care, cementing his role as a key voice in the evolving landscape of value-driven surgery.
