No x-ray facility, not in network, can't find reviews on this procedure to eliminate joint (knee, hip, and shoulder) pain only comments about their seminar, cost for one knee $2850. Please ADVISE!!!

Daughter-in-law went yesterday, x-rays, valium, left in no pain yesterday, will report later on results next month. Not covered by insurance, cost $2850 per knee,

I suspect the Valium is to make you feel better about the bill.
Seems it is more about pain relief than cure of underlying problem.

I had the knee procedure done about 8 months ago. It WAS covered by Medicare at that time. Perhaps something has changed.

The procedure has reduced the pain in my knee significantly. It is not 100% gone and I still wear a knee "sleeve" when I play sports but the chronic pain that kept me from sleeping is gone 8 months after the procedure.

There are 2 options for the injection (part 2 of the procedure). The "standard" one is covered by Medicare and the other - better - one is not.
