@3740 I had a discussion with the representative last month and what you are saying is what I was told too . Medicare has approved a procedure code but all the rest of the work and decisions are still in the works. We know of course other insurance plans will follow someday but she was reluctant to say who. If you want to be considered for a clinical trial in Galveston, TX they are still recruiting through Dec. Go to clinical trials .gov to see if you are eligible. Since the cost is so high without insurance, and the fact that there is a no money back guarantee, I have decided to put in for myself. Hope this helps.
