    Take just 3 minutes to answer a few questions. At the end, you will receive a personal profile about your hip pain and how you can begin to make healthy lifestyle choices.

    But remember, this information does not replace talking with your health care provider about your symptoms and how to treat them.

  • Welcome To The
    Hip-Replacement Decision Aid

    Surgery may or may not be the right choice for you. Only careful discussion and thought can help you decide whether to have surgery.

    Your doctor may recommend hip replacement when:

    • Your pain from hip arthritis limits what you are able to do.
    • Your hip pain has not improved with other treatment.
    • You understand what surgery and recovery after surgery will be like.

    This Decision Aid will lead you through three steps, in three different sections. Some of these steps will begin with a few questions. You can then read and learn about hip-replacement or surgery, based on the answers you have given.


    You may print out your personal report and bring it to your health care provider, if you wish.

  • Welcome To The
    Getting Ready For Surgery

    You may be getting plenty of advice from your doctors, nurses, and others at your doctors’ offices and at the hospital where you will have surgery.

    Even with all of this information from others, it is important for you to make sure you are ready for hip-replacement surgery and the recovery period after surgery.

    Your answers from the “Getting Ready for Surgery” Assessment have been used to help guide you to make sure that:

    • You are as healthy and ready as possible before surgery.
    • You know what you need to do the night before and the morning of your surgery.
    • All the arrangements for your care after surgery have been made.
    • Your insurance company or Medicare covers and will pay for the care you need.

    You may print out your personal report and bring it to your health care provider, if you wish.
