Preference-sensitive procedures such as spinal fusions or joint replacements should be evaluated in terms of risks and benefits for the member, and where less invasive therapeutic alternatives are available. Research indicates medical decisions for these services may not always reflect the member's preference.
Provide your population with educational programming on these procedures and their alternatives, and consider partnering with a vendor providing expert medical opinions from high-quality, cost-effective providers.
