Do you know if insurance covers these stem cell treatments? I have Bupa and I am planning on asking them if they will cover a stem cell treatment related to my upcoming surgery.
My understanding is that when they harvest some of the disc tissue from me they can send it along with some of my blood to a lab here in Germany and then re inject it in three months in order to improve this disc highth.
One additional question I have is do the cells acctually repair the annulus or simply the soft inner gel like core?
Apologies for the non medical lingo!
