A sensing insert device (100) is disclosed for measuring a parameter of the muscular-skeletal system. The sensing insert device (100) can be temporary or permanent. The sensing module (200) is a self-contained encapsulated measurement device having at least one contacting surface that couples to the muscular-skeletal system. The sensing module (200) comprises one or more sensing assemblages, electronic circuitry (307), an antenna (2302), and communication circuitry (320). The sensing assemblages are between a top plate (1502) and a bottom plate (1504) in a sensing platform (121). The sensing assemblages measure the parameter and comprise a load disc (2004) and a piezo-resistive sensor (2002). Three sensing assemblages are coupled at predetermined positions to the top plate (1502). The sensing module (200) can measure a location where the parameter is applied to the top plate (1502).
