Gilsbar Announces Innovative Partnership to Reduce Elective Orthopedic Surgical Spend

COVINGTON, La., Oct. 17, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Gilsbar is proud to continue our history of providing innovative and cost-effective solutions to our clients by announcing a partnership with Regenexx, a world-class interventional orthopedic clinic network which offers access to a less invasive and less costly solution for orthopedic conditions. This new benefit significantly reduces the high cost of musculoskeletal care in a healthcare plan.

Gilsbar's self-funded clients now have access to the Regenexx procedures, which can effectively intervene on 70% orthopedic injuries and conditions (elective orthopedic surgery without fracture related care and acute care trauma) where surgery was previously the only solution. This interventional approach enables employers to save up to 70% on their orthopedic costs while providing best-in-class surgery alternatives with Regenexx's proprietary orthobiologic procedures. Employers who partner with Regenexx not only report a remarkable drop in employees' need for orthopedic surgery, they show less absenteeism.

"After a thorough review of the Regenexx Corporate Program, we added it as an option for our employees and our clients. Our clients now have access to add this cost-savings strategy and Best-In-Class care – a true WIN/WIN for all involved" says Brian Connelly, Director of Product Development & Strategy. "The Regenexx Corporate program aligns with Gilsbar's commitment to lower costs, improve health, and simplify the experience for our clients and their members."

"The Regenexx Corporate Program has quickly become an essential part of our partners healthcare plan as we help employers improve their musculoskeletal care model and strategically decrease the number of avoidable orthopedic surgeries occurring year after year. We look forward to partnering with Gilsbar and their clients to offer them this solution that employees choose over surgery a majority of the time when given the choice," says Jason Hellickson, CEO Regenexx.
