Innovation Spine is harnessing the power of information technology to track and predict changes in innovation within the spine industry. Innovation in the industry is facing massive pressure as the consolidation of spine manufacturers continues and hospital systems limit the number of vendors. This trend may be leading to less innovation in the industry. Our goal is to collect real-time data from every region of the country on trends in vendor hospital approval, insurance coverage, the material composition of preferred implants, outcome data and track how these changes affect the industry. Our vision is to have a fully connected, nationwide network of industry professionals that will prove to be one of the most valuable tools in the industry.
