Spinal Cord Stimulators for Insurance Professionals

Date/Time: November 11, 2026 from 2PM to 3PM Eastern
Cost: FREE 

Spinal cord stimulators (SCS) are showing up more often in chronic pain claims, and understanding when they're appropriate helps you make better decisions on a file. In this insider session, Mary Zalinger, PT, DPT, CLT, OCS, a Board Certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist and Senior Physical Therapist, explains how SCS works, starting with the basics of how pain travels through the body and how stimulation blocks those signals. You'll learn who is a good candidate, the psychological risk factors, contraindications, and precautions that predict poor outcomes, and how the trial period decides whether a patient moves on to a permanent implant.

The session also covers which providers deliver this treatment, when to get a second opinion, and a real case of a patient who went from injections and surgery to a stimulator. Please be sure not to share your link to the program.
