The Orthopedic Institute of New Jersey (OINJ) has recently reinstated its partnership with the largest healthcare provider in New Jersey, Horizon BCBS. This will ensure that patients across the state will, once again, have in-network access to top-tier orthopedic care. 

Dr. Christian J. Zaino, MD shared these words on the recent news: "OINJ is excited to be back in-network with Horizon BCBS as of October 1, 2023. This now gives our patients greater access to our exceptional musculoskeletal team."
