Humana and Wellpoint is in step with Aetna, but United Healthcare covers propofol. Thousands of scans are being delayed. The reason is because a reactor in Canada is shut down. Over 50, 000Canadians are having delays in treatments.
The United States will not build a reactor so the radioactive materials are so dearly needed.
The nuclear society is looking for alternative tests.
