The apparatus includes a bone anchor having a distal anchoring portion for implantation in bone and a proximal reception portion that receives a fixation member. The fixation member has a distal engagement portion for releasably engaging the proximal reception portion of the bone anchor. A support flange included with the fixation member proximal to the distal engagement portion selectively compresses the tissue to be attached to the bone. In a preferred embodiment, the apparatus further includes an intermediate support member dimensioned and configured for placement between the proximal reception portion of the bone anchor and the support flange of the fixation member. Also disclosed is a method for attaching tissue to bone utilizing said apparatus.
