In ancient times, Chinese, South American, and Egyptian civilizations all used vegetable, mineral and skin grafting to treat wounds. In the early 1800s, scientists revealed all life depends on chemical reactions within cells and could be reproduced in the lab. In the early 1900s, scientists discovered DNA and its impact on cell division and subsequently were able to reproduce this phenomena in labs. In the mid 1900s organ transplantation, surgical implants and bio-materials led to the ability to grow and harvest tissues for therapeutic use, hence the birth of the field we now call regenerative medicine.
Some regenerative medicine therapies are covered by medicare and private insurances, but in many instances they are not. Considering the average single patient deductible in the U.S. Is $4490 and the average coinsurance is 75%, in many instances regenerative medicine therapies are less expensive than traditional therapies. With Novo’s strategic partners in patient financing, many of these therapies can be less expensive than a patient’s monthly cable and internet bill.
