Abstract
This article reviews the benefits of corticosteroid, viscosupplementation, platelet-rich plasma, and autologous mesenchymal stem cell injections for the treatment of patients with knee osteoarthritis. Integrating injections into both clinical and surgical practices is complicated given existing health insurance reimbursement policies. This review describes the outcomes associated with these interventions and appropriate methods of navigating the existing reimbursement pathways to help providers implement these treatments into their practices.
