The other obvious issue being funding for intensive lifestyle modification programs like this - we are currently applying for such but the cost per patient is very high and hard to get!

To put it another way - if we treated 1,000,000 people with Virta, we'd be paying ~$5 billion for one year of treatment. That's one top of some other regular treatment (i.e. meds) that it does not appear to cover. That's roughly the budget of all the hospitals in Sydney
