Biomaterials derived from Hyaluronic Acid (HA) are extensively used in the healthcare industry. Their application ranges from treating osteoarthritis to enabling cataract surgeries to erasing facial wrinkles to preventing post-surgical adhesions. In spite of its wide use, the HA biomaterials market in the United States is not without its worries. The main challenge is the loss in revenue due to Medicare's cuts for reimbursement of procedures that use HA-based biomaterials. The advancing age of the baby boomers in the United States is expected to boost the demand for HA-based biomaterial products, since this segment of the population will require more treatments for osteoarthritis, cataracts and cosmetic procedures to erase wrinkles.
