I have single handedly seen peripheral nerve stimulation change patients lives. These patients are already extremely limited on sustainable options for their pain and with PNS they are able to have a long term and effective option while also lowering or completely eliminating the need for opiates and opioids. Eliminating pns as an option to patients would place more financial demands and long term care costs to patients and insurance companies, continue the upwards trend of medication use and most importantly would remove the opportunity for countless patients to have an improved quality of life.

Would be a disservice to patients to abolish PNS coverage. Would also not be cost-effective.

PNS has been helping thousands of patients. Minimally invasive, safe, and effective.

This is a less expensive alternative and allows more freedom of movement.

Nothing in the last 20 years of Neuromodulation has been more promising to help chronic pain patients. It is imperative that Physcians have effective non-opioid solutions, like PNS, to address the un-met need of chronic pain patients. The ground swell response you are receiving is the result of real world positive patient outcomes because of PNS treatments

PNS is very effective for pain relief and does not require medication therapy which are both crucial components to help combat the current widespread opioid epidemic in the United States.

Many of my doctors have been able to help their patients with PNS without the need for a permanent implant.

With the opiod epidemic, we need procedures like these to help patients in pain and reduce pain medications in the public while improving quality of life.

I fully support PNS and other opiate sparing technologies.

This is great option for patients with chronic joint pain from stroke, TBI, and spinal cord injury and there are so few options to improve quality of life for them.
