Despite federal delays, bundled payments will be entrenched in US healthcare

Posted On July 24, 2017 By OrthoSpineNews In Financial /  

AUTHOR Les Masterson/July 17, 2017

Amid yet another delay in CMS-led bundled payment programs, the popular value-based reimbursement model seems poised to continue as a favorite for providers. Bundled payments serve as an entry to value-based care because of the relatively low risk providers take on. And while these programs aren’t yet proven to be successful, there is enough positive data to excite those who champion paying for healthcare based on value.

Bundled payment models have been around for decades, but they really started to grow as President Barack Obama took office and the CMS started to role out demonstration projects and other initiatives. Although CMS under the current administration is less enthused for bundled payments, the industry trend isn’t likely to stop.

Private payers are getting in the game, too, so hospitals should invest in EHRs that allow real-time care coordination, and should consider trying voluntary programs as an on ramp to the process.

More delays

CMS in recent months has delayed starting and expanding bundled payment programs that would further move payments from fee-for-service (FFS) to a value-based system. The delays have caused concerns in the industry, but CMS said they allow for additional review and feedback from the industry.

The federal agency has also delayed the start of some programs to next year as well as put a pause on expanding others. These weren’t CMS’ first bundled payment program delays.

The American Hospital Association supported the delay in April, but spoke out against additional delays and potential burdens on providers. “As it exists, the rule places too much risk on providers with little opportunity for reward in the form of shared savings, especially in light of the significant upfront investments required,” said AHA Executive Vice President Tom Nickels.

Recent delays are particularly concerning because HHS Secretary Dr. Tom Price has been a vocal critic of mandatory bundled payment programs. Still, Price supports voluntary programs and backed the bipartisan Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization ACT (MACRA) when he was in Congress.

Paragon 28® expands innovative product portfolio with the launch of the PROMO™ Triplanar Hallux Valgus Correction System

Posted On July 21, 2017 By OrthoSpineNews In Extremities /  

ENGLEWOOD, Colo., July 21, 2017 /PRNewswire/ — Since its inception, Paragon 28 has obsessed over every aspect of foot and ankle surgery. Committed to creating tailored solutions to improve surgical outcomes, Paragon 28® has launched innovative products and instrumentation that help to streamline procedures, allow surgeons flexibility in technique and approach, and facilitate reproducible results benefitting both the surgeon and patient.

PROMO or Proximal Rotational Metatarsal Osteotomy is a hallux valgus correction system designed to allow complete bunion correction in multiple planes. Recent studies have shown that up to 87% of hallux valgus (bunion) deformities contain a frontal plane rotational deformity.1  While traditional single-plane procedures such as the scarf or chevron osteotomes only correct the transverse deformity, PROMO simultaneously corrects the metatarsal internal pronation as well as the varus deformity through a single, oblique osteotomy.

The patent-pending PROMO System contains a series of custom jigs and implants utilized in the measurement, construction and fixation of an oblique plane osteotomy specific to the patient’s deformity. Unique plates are included that are sized and shaped around the oblique angulation of the osteotomy. PROMO also includes a PRECISION™ guided system which enables the user to place a cross screw across the osteotomy while avoiding hardware collision with the plating construct.

Features & Benefits:

  • Corrects all deformity parameters including rotation in the frontal plane
    • May help decrease chance of recurrence2
  • Single Oblique Osteotomy
    • Reduces the likelihood of shortening which can help prevent transfer metatarsalgia
    • Osteotomy allows for placement of an interfragmentary screw which increases the rigidity of the construct
  • Custom jigs aid in construction of the oblique plane osteotomy
    • Repeatable and streamlined technique
  • Avoids fusing the first TMT joint
    • Helps sustain patient joint health

Paragon 28 is grateful for the significant contributions Dr. Emilio Wagner, MD, and Dr. Pablo Wagner, MD, made as surgeon designers of this system.

Medtronic Announces Infuse Settlements

Posted On July 21, 2017 By OrthoSpineNews In Regulatory, Spine, Top Stories /  

Walter Eisner • Thu, July 20th, 2017

Medtronic plc says it has reached an agreement with “substantially all” remaining claimants involving the Infuse bone graft product.

In a June 27, 2017 10K filing with the SEC, the company announced the agreements with approximately 6,000 claimants. The company also said it has set aside $300 million for “certain litigation charges” in the filing.

The company had previously disclosed reaching settlements in more than 4,000 Infuse patient lawsuits. In December 2016, a judge in St. Louis cleared the way for the first jury trial involving personal injuries allegedly caused by Infuse. That trial could have opened sealed internal documents that could have been used in other trials.

According to the Minneapolis Star Tribune, the company paid at least $85 million in a settlement to shareholders in 2012 to resolve allegations that it failed to reveal that most sales of Infuse were for off-label surgeries. In 2014, Medtronic said it paid $22 million to 950 injured Infuse patients. The company denied wrongdoing in each settlement.

Remaining Investigations

While the announcement settles private claims, the company is still under investigation by various state attorneys general who have issued subpoenas or document requests in Massachusetts, California, Oregon, Illinois, and Washington seeking more information regarding the Infuse device.

Invibio and Carbofix Partnering With UK Olympic Sprinter James Ellington on New “Passion For Progress” Initiative

Posted On July 21, 2017 By OrthoSpineNews In Sports Medicine, Top Stories /  

THORNTON CLEVELEYS, England, July 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ —

UK Olympic sprinter James Ellington has joined forces with the UK´s Invibio Biomaterial Solutions and CarboFix Orthopedics on his road to recovery and his overall ambition to return to the world stage of athletic competition after a devastating motorcycle accident in Tenerife earlier this year.

(Photo: http://mma.prnewswire.com/media/535235/Invibio_Biomaterial_Solutions.jpg )

The two companies and the athlete share a passion for progress and pushing boundaries; for James Ellington, mentally and physically first in sport and now in recovery, and for CarboFix and Invibio with innovative biomaterials and devices that have the potential to change the treatment of trauma fractures. For patients recovering from traumatic injuries this could serve as an inspiration not to lose track of their goals and passion.

Changes in destiny couldn´t be more pronounced for an athlete like James Ellington, who suddenly turned from being a world-class, elite sprinter training for his next competition to a patient in recovery facing an unknown future. However, even the life-changing experience of a severe head-on collision of his motorbike with a car hasn’t stopped James Ellington from fighting for his goals, despite having his legs and pelvis completely smashed.

“In extreme situations, it’s important not to lose faith and to consider all (therapeutic) options available,” explains Ellington. “I had a severe tibia fracture, and was offered two choices to fix it: a traditional Titanium nail or a Carbofix nail using a relatively new, but promising carbon fibre, composite technology. For me, it’s all about giving myself the best chance of achieving my goal and returning to competitive athletics. I chose the Carbofix nail because it’s lighter weight and for its faster healing potential.” Continues Ellington, “The rod is made from a new composite polymer. It’s strong, in a way that’s similar to metal implants, but not as stiff, which means it has the capability to stress the bone more and provide some micro-motion, so it works more like natural bone. The idea is that this will help support a quicker recovery – which is what convinced me this was the right path for me.” The sprinter nevertheless considers himself lucky: because he survived, is not paralyzed, is walking again and is so far on a good recovery path that may also include running in the future.

With trauma implants made from Invibio’s PEEK-OPTIMA™ Ultra-Reinforced, a composite polymer, CarboFix Orthopedics is hoping to support James and other patients in a similar position. Ron Szekely, the company´s Vice President of Sales and Marketing, says: “The aim itself to get back on track is fantastic, whether that’s the athletic track or returning to other individual recovery goals. This can be an important driver for rehabilitation. In addition to dedication and enthusiasm, patients need to have access to innovative medical devices that can support this. At CarboFix we believe in the potential of changing trauma treatment to improve the quality of life for many patients.”

Coming back (on track): high quality of life is an important aspect for recovery

“James Ellington´s passion for progress is the common denominator and connecting link between himself and Invibio,” explains Medical Business Unit Director, John Devine of Invibio Biomaterial Solutions. “Metals have been used to treat trauma fractures for decades, but patient demands for a quicker recovery with fewer device breakages coupled with the global increase in patient risk factors such as obesity and diabetes mean we need to be open to progress. That includes being open to the possibility that new innovative carbon fibre reinforced devices made from less stiff materials could really change how successful surgery and patient recovery is. The medical (device) industry itself very often and for good reasons, has to make small albeit important steps, to overcome challenges and achieve substantial progress towards the ultimate objective of improving patient outcomes and quality of life. James knows exactly how that feels and his positive attitude and firm belief in capabilities and future performance is another point we have in common.”

Inspiring people to achieve new records

This “passion for progress” after a traumatic injury or challenging operation is a theme supported by the two companies and centering on James Ellington´s hope to become an active athlete again. Together, Ellington, CarboFix and Invibio are pleased that James has already achieved so much in the months since the accident. The progress and hope shown by James Ellington could also help and inspire patients and trauma surgeons alike – whether Ellington is a pioneer by being an Olympic athlete sprinter again, or simply back and participating in the race of life.

Antibiotic-Releasing Polymer May Help Eradicate Joint Implant Infection

Posted On July 21, 2017 By OrthoSpineNews In Recon /  

July 19, 2017 – Source: Massachusetts General Hospital

In the new approach to treating prosthetic joint infection, developed by Massachusetts General Hospital investigators, the infected prosthesis and affected tissue are removed and the new prosthesis, incorporating an antibody-releasing polymer, is implanted in a single procedure. The antibiotic — in this example vancomycin — is released over time to eradicate any bacteria that remain and prevent future infection. Courtesy of Jeremy Vincentius Suhardi, Harris Orthopædics Laboratory, Massachusetts General Hospital.

A team of Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) investigators has developed an antibiotic-releasing polymer that may greatly simplify the treatment of prosthetic joint infection. In their recent report published in Nature Biomedical Engineering, the researchers describe how implants made from this material successfully eliminated two types of prosthetic infection in animal models.

“Currently, most infections involving total joint replacement prostheses require a two-stage surgery, in which the patient’s daily activities are largely compromised for four to six months,” says Orhun Muratoglu, PhD, director of the Harris Orthopedics Laboratory in the MGH Department of Orthopedic Surgery, a co-author of the report. “Our finding that polyethylene, the most commonly used weight-bearing surface in total joint surgery, can be made to safely and effectively release antibiotics implies that fully weight-bearing implants made with this material could be used to treat infection in a single procedure, reducing both the inconvenience and the risk of complications for patients.”
