anyone who sees Dr Delamarter...please keep asking about the status of FDA approving the 2 level arm of the clinical trials.
I seriously doubt my insurance will consider covering my surgery until FDA approves 2 levels and then I'm sure it will still be a battle.
Just wondering if we are still on the 6 mos timeline for the 2 level approval. Anyone with any insight or update?
