How Much Do Knee Gel Injections Cost?
Rx-Direct for Patients
If you are considering hyaluronic acid injections for your knee pain, but unsure whether your insurance covers it – or you’ve decided not to use insurance to pay for it – Rx-Direct may be right for you.
HA injections can cost up to $1300* for a 3-injection series. With Rx-Direct, whether you need a 3 or 5 injection series, it’s just $97 a syringe. That’s considerably more affordable than paying out-of-pocket without Rx-Direct and often well under the average insurance deductible.
The process is simple and convenient.
Step 1: Using the form below, your doctor will send a prescription for either GenVisc 850 or TriVisc HA to a pharmacy within our network.
Step 2: The pharmacy will call you for credit card payment. Once payment is approved, the HA is shipped directly to your doctor’s office.
Step 3: Your doctor’s office will then contact you to schedule the necessary appointments.
Rx-Direct is both HSA and FSA eligible. To start saving on treatments, download the form then share it with your healthcare provider.
