There are numerous organizational osteoporosis initiatives in the United States offering a variety of recommendations and guidelines. A common method of implementing these goals is centered around multidisciplinary provider teams with the broad task of diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of current and future osteoporosis related fractures. These teams have generally proved to be successful even though it remains debated, which specific provider specialty is ultimately responsible for osteoporosis care. The current United States healthcare infrastructure represents the significant obstacle in widespread adoption of successful treatment programs. The development of further quality standards and incorporation of fracture liaison services into reimbursement and funding models will allow for continued improvement in osteoporosis care.
美国有许多针对骨质疏松症的组织倡议，提供了各种各样的建议和指南。实现这些目标的一种常见方法是以多学科医疗团队为核心，其广泛任务是诊断、治疗和预防当前及未来与骨质疏松症相关的骨折。尽管对于哪个具体的医疗专业最终负责骨质疏松症护理仍存在争议，但这些团队总体上已被证明是成功的。美国当前的医疗基础设施是成功治疗方案广泛采用的重大障碍。制定进一步的质量标准并将骨折联络服务纳入报销和资助模式，将有助于持续改善骨质疏松症护理。
