The International Directory of Spinecare Products was developed as an online catalogue of products designed to improve spine health. The products are available for purchase by healthcare facilites, healthcare professionals, and the public worldwide.
Special offers are available to healthcare professionals who are active members of the American Academy of Spine Physicians (AASP) and to individuals (the public) who are members of the International Spine Association (ISA). This is referred to as the Buying Advantage Progam.
The directory utilizes a sophisticated database to organize and present information about participating companies and their products. Users can access simple online search functions to quickly find items of interest. Some healthcare professionals use available referral script forms to send their patients to the directory for specific product considerations.
