What is the cost of a SpinaLogic bone growth stimulator?
My insurance company paid 5K for it! I understand there is some type of 'disable' device built in to it so after I use it I could not donate it to someone that may not have insurance to get one! Which sucks!As with many medical devices, it can be used properly and improperly. A person with a pacemaker should not use a Bone Stimulator, as the magnetic field may cause the pacemaker to fail. Unsupervised use might lead it injury or death.They are designed for short use, once a day, and then only a few weeks after surgery.I am using one now. It can only be use once per day for a total of 270 days. Then, it will stop working.
How does the SpinaLogic bone growth stimulator work?
It sends electromagnectic pulses into your body, which promotes the growth of bone grafts. Bone grafts are tiny pieces of bone, sometimes from a cadaver, sometimes taken from other parts of your body like your hip. The bone grafts are placed between vertebra and eventually grow to fuse the vertebrae together. This operation is called a spinal fusion. The bone growth stimulator must have been proven to work because my insurance not only approved the use of it, but paid for 100% of it when I had my spinal fusion. I also assume from their approval, that it must save them money in some way, such as less doctor visits if it makes the bone grafts grow faster than without it.
