We're pleased to announce that 1000 patients have been enrolled in the FREEDOM Lumbar Microdiscectomy Registry designed to understand the prevalence of large annular defects. 55 investigators have finalized enrollment at their sites, and many more are nearing completion. A special thanks to all our clinical investigators for gathering this invaluable data that may help identify those patients at highest risk for reoperation for reherniation.

Manufacturer of Barricaid® Designed to prevent reherniation.
About us
Adjacent to a lumbar discectomy, the Barricaid® device is designed to close large defects in the annulus, which often lead to disc reherniation and/or disc collapse. Barricaid is a permanent implant with two components - a titanium bone anchor and a flexible polymer barrier. The barrier is designed to prevent reherniation by physically blocking the annulus at the post-surgery defect. The anchor component is comprised of titanium alloy that is placed into either the caudal or cranial-adjacent vertebral body to secure the device in position. The Barricaid has been studied in a definitive – level 1B evidence - randomized superiority trial with over 550 patients enrolled (clinicaltrials.gov NCT01283438). The study focuses on patient at highest risk of reherniation and reoperation, enrolling only those patients with large defects (width >5 mm). The co-primary endpoints of reherniation and an 8-point composite of safety and effectiveness are evaluated at 2 years, with a parallel cost effectiveness analysis. Treated patients were found superior on both endpoints, with significantly lower rates of symptomatic recurrences (12% vs. 25%, p<0.001), index-level reoperations (9% vs. 16%, p=0.01), and device or procedure related serious adverse events (SAEs) (7% vs. 17%, p=0.001). Through two years, a total of 29 reoperations were performed in Barricaid subjects in comparison to 61 procedures in Controls. Study results are published in The Spine Journal, May 2018. Barricaid is FDA-Approved For full risk/benefit, see: www.barricaid.com/instructions-for-use

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Intrinsic Therapeutics Announces Changes in CMS’ 2025 Final Rule for Bone Anchored Annular Closure Resulting in Improved Payment for Hospital Outpatient and ASCs. The Final Rule updated the Medicare payment rate for HCPCS procedure code C9757, created specifically to describe a lumbar discectomy with repair of annular defect using the Barricaid Bone Anchored Annular Closure implant, from $6,500.62 to $9,527.15 in the Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC), an increase of 46%. “We are gratified by CMS’ evaluation of a complex series of facts to arrive at this decision. More patients around the country will now have access to the proven Barricaid treatment”, commented April Spillane, VP of Health Economics at Intrinsic Therapeutics. Dr. Paul Kraemer, Orthopedic Surgeon at Indiana Spine Group had this to say on the decision, "Patients deserve the opportunity to make their first spine surgery their last spine surgery. This decision will help make it economically feasible for surgeons and facilities to offer the Barricaid procedure."

At Intrinsic Therapeutics, we believe that surgical decisions should be made by surgeons, NOT insurance companies. The Barricaid Patient First Program puts the clinical decision back into the hands of the surgeon by mitigating nonpayment concerns with commercial payors. Dr. Jeffrey Henn discusses his experience with the Patient First Program, "Patient First has been game changing for us...we know we're going to be able to move forward (with surgery regardless of prior authorization outcome) and do the right thing for the patient..."
