The technology need not be complicated or expensive.
For someone w ALS who can't work the switch on a lamp, victory comes with a clap.

So help me, if any researchers complain about ALS trial participantion, I would like to send them to neals.org today to search for a trial. On what planet is it ok to waste people’s time and effort this way?

So many Qs on this one.

Do we know what pct of ppl w ALS are actually enrolled in traditional Medicare vs advantage vs private payers vs Medicaid...

How many ppl w ALS have such a "clean" period when joining Medicare because of ALS?

Anyway, interesting, but...

A big dose of irony here because even outside of a shutdown "the information on this website may not be up to date and the agency may not be able to respond to inquiries."
Go figure.
