Significant Development

Anthem, Inc. will support minimally invasive SI joint fusion solely when conducted with the iFuse system of triangular titanium implants, according to SI-BONE which is a Silicon Valley-based medical technology firm. Anthem has implemented medical necessity standards from AIM Specialty Health which is a subsidiary specialty benefit management firm, which approves minimally invasive SI joint fusion just when iFuse (titanium triangular implants) are utilized.
