I've waited five years for the technology so that I wouldn't have to have fusion on three levels. Now that my lumbar is too far gone for ADR I had scheduled fusion at one level with Dynesis on two adjacent levels. I scheduled that over three months ago and the surgery was to be Sept. 22. Today I got the call that Cedars Sinai in Los Angeles declined to accept me as a patient because I was a medicare Patient. Medicare won't pay for the BMP for the fusion and they don't pay enough for hospital stay. So I've cancelled.
