We really need it here in the U.S. Are there plans any time soon? There are many of us that would benefit greatly!
I need this now.They want me to do it,but vanderbuilt will not do it because no coverage.I’m running out of time. I have been trying to get medical help for 2 years
MommaShae,why do you need this in the US??. if you meet the acceptance criteria, get your passport and head out there!!
saying that hopefully available in the US soon. problem is this small company is seen as a threat to the Big Pharma companies in the US,and in addition to having limited resources its harder to get the device approved for use here.
