Apparently there is new interest to this approach of solving the mystery of cancer. We can only hope for the sake of mankind that eventually a solution will be found. If it is TTNP, that would be great. However, if a cure is found, the government probably will not pay for the treatment. A friend and our spouses, while attending a James Taylor concert this past weekend, were discussing his business. He is the co-founder of the largest oncology management company in the country. Medicare just reduced their reimbursement for radiology treatments by approximately 25%. Medicare in their infinite wisdom didn't allow for the difference in radiology treatments and diagnostic procedures. Therefore, by reducing diagnostic procedures they also cut the allowance for treatment.
