Patients don’t want another appointment… Another wait… Another bill.
They want action.
Give them results.
Common musculoskeletal injections are well within the scope of practice of primary care, emergency department, and urgent care providers. By administering a joint or bursa injection rather than referring the patient to orthopedic surgery, you can be the solution instead of the gatekeeper.
Procedures
Three common injections account for a large percentage of musculoskeletal procedures performed in a typical orthopedic clinic every day.
Knee joint injection
Shoulder subacromial bursa injection
Hip trochanteric bursa injection
