EXOGEN Performance Program
The EXOGEN Performance Program is a program that refunds patients their out-of-pocket payment for EXOGEN if progression of healing is not shown per criteria below. It is also designed to help reinforce patients’ adherence to the prescribed treatment.
Criteria
All patients who have purchased an EXOGEN designed for the treatment of a fracture, which was prescribed by a qualified physician to treat a stable, non-displaced, established nonunion,* delayed union or acute fracture with a fracture gap less than 10 millimeters (excluding vertebra and skull fractures) are eligible. All patients will automatically be enrolled in the program.
Patients must treat their fracture with EXOGEN per product instructions, for a minimum of 120 consecutive days and achieve a minimum adherence of at least 90%.
Evaluation
To be eligible, your prescribing physician must determine that your bone has not healed, or progressed to a bony union. The prescribing physician must provide two X-rays of your affected bone, one prior to using EXOGEN, and another taken after 120 days or more of EXOGEN treatment that shows a lack of bony union.
The EXOGEN device contains an internal patient usage monitor that records the date, time and duration of each treatment session. This monitor will be used by Bioventus to confirm that at least 90% treatment adherence is met.

- Unstable

Summary of Indications for Use
The EXOGEN Ultrasound Bone Healing System is indicated for the non-invasive treatment of established nonunions* excluding skull and vertebra. The EXOGEN device has also been reported as effective as an adjunctive non-invasive treatment of established nonunions in patients:
- With internal or external fracture fixation hardware present. EXOGEN cannot penetrate metal and therefore should not be applied directly over hardware.
- Undergoing treatment for infection at the fracture site. EXOGEN is not intended to treat the infection.
- Believed to have diminished bone quality. EXOGEN is not intended to treat diminished bone quality.
In addition, EXOGEN is indicated for accelerating the time to a healed fracture for fresh, closed, posteriorly displaced distal radius fractures and fresh, closed or Grade I open tibial diaphysis fractures in skeletally mature individuals when these fractures are orthopedically managed by closed reduction and cast immobilization.
There are no known contraindications for the EXOGEN device. Safety and effectiveness have not been established for individuals lacking skeletal maturity, pregnant or nursing women, patients with cardiac pacemakers, on fractures due to bone cancer, or on patients with poor blood circulation or clotting problems. Some patients may be sensitive to the ultrasound gel.
*A nonunion is considered to be established when the fracture site shows no visibly progressive signs of healing.
