Hope for at least 40% but not here even though this is the home of the technology necessary for the procedure.
Why does this have to be announced from the UK? Why isn’t it here now? Not enough money in it? Can’t patent it because it is public technology? Can’t exploit it by marketing like those fruity tejeho (sp?) commercials?
American medicine is NOT the best in the world if you can’t get it and can’t afford it. On the basis of life expectancy to dollars spent alone it is an UNMITIGATED DISASTER!
According to a law signed by Ronald Reagan in 1986 or thereabouts, all public hospitals are required to treat sick people regardless of their ability to pay. I was assured last year as my treatments soared over $12,000 EACH that payment was not a consideration.
FWIW, I do have insurance and have worked out a payment plan for the rest. But that was not known when I checked into the hospital almost at death’s door.
Probably can’t because there are hurdles to get it past the government FDA
