In fact, my sense, I don't want to speak, I'm really not sure.

Yeah, because your scope plugs into the box. It doesn't plug into your striker system or your Olympus system to your monitor. It plugs into the box, then the box plugs into your monitor. So it is an intermediate box or step that you do need. It's my sense that... The cost is simply, I'm almost 100% positive the more I think about it now. I had privy to look at some of the costs and whatnot.

The hospital is simply paying for the device, the CVAC device, in the case of CVAC, and getting reimbursed, actually, obviously. In fact, there is a transitional pass-through payment code for single-use scopes that can be applied for Medicare patients. So that really lowers the cost to the hospital. And in fact, the CVAC has a unique definition

facility reimbursement code that's different than just ureteroscopy. So for in the United States, that has a huge effect on for the hospital and for the providers.

Yeah. Well, the cool thing is there's so many other issues. You've already touched upon some of the things that where we can do it better and better and better. And I'm excited maybe to come back on the show one day and tell you what we're doing and share what other people are doing and how ureteroscopy has suddenly made another huge leap or something else within stone surgery.

So that's the best part of all of this.

Well, I think there's new technology available. There are not huge obstacles to adopting these technologies. And the data suggests that it definitely improves the stone-free rates and lowers the infection rates. So if the learning curve is not huge, which it is not for these devices, then why not adopt them? And I think you'll see for yourself why people are really excited about suction devices.
