Purpose Of Review:
The aim of the review is to conduct a literature search on cost-effectiveness or cost savings of osteoporosis fracture liaison services.
Recent Findings:
We identified four types of FLS. A total of 11 cost-effectiveness studies examining 15 models of secondary fracture prevention models were identified. Nine models were found to be cost-saving, and five were found to be cost-effective. It is possible to adopt a cost-effective model for fracture liaison services and expand across geographical regions. Adopting registries can have the added benefit of monitoring quality improvement practices and treatment outcomes. Challenges exist in implementing registries where centralized data collections across different chronic conditions are politically driving agendas. In order to align political and organizational strategic plans, a core set of outcome evaluations that are both focused on patient and provider experience in addition to treatment outcomes can be a step toward achieving better health and services.

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...
