<p>[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 4607310"]I would not label it all as greed. I have worked with 2 POD's and numerious other spine (smaller in size) OEM's that I'll call POD like (POD = < 49% Ownership). Some hospitals and buyers no longer care who makes that MAS or Cervical Plate, they now buy based on cost. And yes, they understand risk & FDA burden and it's a non-issue, non-value add. I feel this has hurt MDT Spine much more than anything else. Smaller Spine OEM's do not carry the huge overhead, offer very simple systems, basic spine systems and some do not push BMP, several have benefited from the Infuse concerns.</p><p><br /></p><p>To the orginal question, POD's and POD likes are not going anywhere, not anytime soon. Yes I can see even more Ortho opportunity over the next few years, just look to the Ortho history of the state of Utah as a recent example.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
