Surgeons and staff must undergo a training regiment prior to offering this treatment and the program itself focuses on systematic and predictable patient selection, the alignment of objectives across all members of the healthcare team and strict adherence to and fulfillment of discharge plan objectives.

“Data shows that one of the most prevalent reasons people delay total knee replacement is the fear associated with the procedure and recovery — and the Z23 Outpatient Program is proving very successful at directly alleviating those fears among the right patients,” said John Walters, Marketing Director, Knees.
