Top Down Investment Thesis
Chronic pain is estimated to cost the U.S. economy $90 to $100 billion per year. Costs continue growing due to increasing obesity, the aging population, and overall poor lifestyles. Interventional pain management (“IPM”) is a multidisciplinary approach for managing and eliminating pain and became more visible when it was granted a medical sub-specialty from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services in 2003.

Interventional pain management develops customized plans, and uses minimally invasive outpatient procedures, such as nerve blocks, epidurals, and implants to help patients manage or eliminate pain. IPM is an attractive alternative to higher-risk heavy drug regimens that simply mask the pain or costly surgeries that require lengthy recovery and questionable long term outcomes. As a result, IPM offers an excellent value proposition to the patients, referring physicians, and payors
