Medicoeconomic data on treatments for osteoarthritis are scant. We investigated the impact of hyaluronic acid therapy on the cost of management of knee osteoarthritis. Our primary objective was to compare medical costs (admissions, outpatient visits, investigations, and treatments) and non-medical costs (sick leaves and transportation) from the perspective of the national health insurance system during the 3 months before and the 6 months after three intraarticular injections of hyaluronic acid. Our secondary objective was to evaluate treatment benefits in terms of pain, function, and quality of life.
