Where this comes from

Abstract

Second only to the knee, the shoulder is the most commonly reported area of chronic joint pain. By practicing evidence-based methods for improved outcomes at lower costs, providers can increase both efficiency and margin, while patients experience better care and higher satisfaction. Current cost studies on shoulder care provide a base for improving evidence-based care and improving value.
