Platinum ServicesSM Knee Replacements

Platinum Services is our deluxe service upgrade program for your patient-specific knee replacement procedure.

To upgrade, you pay an out-of-pocket personalization services fee to obtain a patient-specific knee replacement system for your unique anatomy. The services fee can vary by the medical facility at which your procedure is performed, and it is not reimbursed by Medicare or private health insurance.

Why Pay An Out-of-Pocket Services Fee For Full Knee Personalization?

Conformis’ patient-specific knee replacement implants are the only systems made individually to fit each patient’s unique anatomy.

Generic, or “off-the-shelf”, implants are typically made in a limited number of average sizes that may not provide adequate bone coverage for a significant percentage of people. In such situations, people experience overhang (places where an implant is too big and could result in unnecessary pain) and/or underhang (places where an implant is too small and bone is left exposed).

In contrast, our patient-specific systems are designed to fit the unique size, shape and curvature of your knee, with the objective of restoring your natural joint line and natural range of motion.

Warranty: We Stand Behind Our Patient-Specific Knee Replacements

We believe in the quality of our systems and are willing to stand behind them!

In addition to offering the only fully personalized or patient-specific knee replacement system in the market, you will receive the only limited warranty for knee replacement implants in the market.

If you upgrade through the Platinum Services program, pay the services fee, and require a revision surgery within 5 years of your original Conformis knee replacement surgery, we will reimburse you up to $3,000.

Compelling Clinical Evidence & Research Supports Full Personalization

The high performance of Conformis’ patient-specific knee replacements has been demonstrated in dozens of clinical studies that have been published in peer-reviewed medical journals. 

One published study of patients shows that patients with a patient-specific Conformis knee system in one leg and a traditional off-the-shelf knee in the other leg preferred their Conformis knee over their off-the-shelf knee at a rate of more than 10 to 1. 

Also, we consistently see 85-90% patient satisfaction with our patient-specific knee systems, in an industry where 70-80% satisfaction is typical for generic, off-the-shelf implants. 

In one research study, 77% of patients with a patient-specific Conformis implant indicated that they were “extremely likely” to recommend Conformis, as compared to only 36% for patients who had off-the-shelf implants.
