Default Cervical ADR is NOT banned in Australila!!!

I have first-hand information regarding the status of cervical ADR in Oz.

Cervical ADR is NOT banned in Australia. They are dealing with the same kind of reimbursement issues there that we have in the US. Cervical ADR procedures are currently being done in Australia. However, these procedures are being done without Medicare or Health Fund funding.
