On this episode, we explore the cost effectiveness of computer assisted versus conventional total knee arthroplasty. Joined by special guest Dr. Hassan Ghomrawi, surgical outcomes researcher/health economist and associate professor at the Orthopedic Surgery Department of the University of Alabama at Birmingham, the discussion delves into the economic incentives and outcomes associated with these advanced surgical techniques.
Dr. Ghomrawi shares his unique journey from pharmaceutical economics to orthopedic research, offering insights into how different healthcare models impact cost and patient care. The conversation also touches on the broader implications of technology in orthopedics, including wearable devices, robotics, and artificial intelligence.
Listeners will gain a comprehensive understanding of the study's methodology, including the use of markov models to simulate patient outcomes and costs over a lifetime. The discussion includes the potential for increased utilization of computer assisted surgery, the role of insurance payers, and the future of cost effective healthcare solutions.
