Sacroiliac Joint Injection

Sacroiliac Joint Injection

A Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Injection is a targeted procedure used to diagnose and treat pain originating where the lower spine connects to the pelvis. These injections typically contain a mixture of a local anesthetic and a corticosteroid, delivered directly into the SI joint under the guidance of live X-ray (fluoroscopy) or ultrasound. While the anesthetic provides immediate, short-term relief to confirm the joint as the source of discomfort, the steroid works to reduce inflammation over the following days and weeks. This treatment is particularly effective for individuals suffering from sacroiliitis or joint dysfunction caused by injury, pregnancy, or degenerative changes, often providing a significant window of relief that allows for more effective physical rehabilitation.

General Ask

Does the clinic accept my insurance?

To accurately verify your coverage and determine the support we can offer through your insurance, give us a call and provide us with the following:

Your full name and date of birth

The name of your insurance company

Your member ID (usually found on your insurance card)

Once we have this information, our support team can verify your benefits and let you know what kind of support is available.

Do you take walk-ins?

Unfortunately, we cannot accept walk-in appointments at this time. This is primarily because most insurance plans require a formal referral from your Primary Care Provider (PCP) for a specialist visit, like ours.

The Referral Process: Without a current, valid referral on file, your insurance company will likely deny coverage for the visit. We must have that referral documentation before your appointment is scheduled to ensure your visit is covered.

What to do next: Please call your PCP and request they send a referral to our clinic first. Once we receive and process the referral, we will contact you immediately to schedule your appointment.

Corpus Christi Pain Medicine (CCPM) is a specialized interventional pain management practice dedicated to helping patients find relief from chronic and acute pain through minimally invasive procedures.
