"An international study demonstrates compelling changes in urologists’ clinical decisions, with use of Cxbladder Triage and Cxbladder Detect leading to fewer total tests and less invasive procedures, implying a reduction in healthcare costs and an improved experience and outcome for patients."

With all the talk about trump(care?) and how 'bad' it will be for pacific edge (although, perhaps ironically, it was nearly never brought up how great Obamacare could be for PEB) the bold above sounds like something trump would love!
And, well, the doctors, patients etc... share price back at 56 cents, but Balance has noted several times it only goes up becuase of those 'manipulative underwriters', but when it goes down it is because of the market

Very good news. PE can demonstrate both clinical validity AND Utility. The sort of things CMS like...

[psychic]

All of the urologists changed their diagnostic recommendations once they
assessed the Cxbladder results ranging from 1 to 100% of the patient cases.
This led to a reduction of 25% in the total number of diagnostic procedures
for patients, including a 31% reduction in invasive tests, following
inclusion of both the Triage and Detect results for those patients.

my bold.. :]

With the Obama era ,it was business as usual for companies like PEB(trying to get acceptance for the big things like Medicare coverage)--But with the Trump era bringing uncertainty,it put the medical community in limbo,thus causing delays in decision making. The fact that ''Trumpcare'' is apparently a cost cutting procedure, creates an atmosphere that is not conductive to new players entering the market.It could of course happen,but IMO the Obamacare era was a better chance. The Trump administration is not really making a name for themselves in terms of getting things done on an administrative level. ---to put your inference in a nutshell--Trumpcare,''uncertainty''is what is bad for PEB---There are areas of the Government ,like overseas Government posts, that have discontinued policies that were up for renewal,simply because they have gotten no information from the government on what to do. Thats not a good atmosphere to be working in.---Remember ..this is an experimental Government with no clue about the nuts and bolts of everyday running of affairs.

If some company came up with a different, less effective test,but someone in this Government had ties with them.....what do YOU think would happen

PEB has been technically bullish for a month now..10 days ago there was a mass of buy signals triggered at 53c (must buy) Today the Price is at 59c up 2c

On the charts there is a 10 month old strongish resistance level at 59/60c....The market depth also shows a resistance at 60c..This could a big hurdle to jump over...however the TA indicators are bullish so there is a good chance it may breakout..The last time PEB broke out was just over a year ago It went from 40c to 60c a handsome very short term profit of +50% in 28 days...since then PEB has been in a secondary downtrend (PEB has been in a primary downtrend from ~$1.60 for over the last 2 years).

The usual lower risk TA discipline rule of thumb applies... Don't buy/hold down trending stocks...buy/accumulate at support, Hold (cease buying/accumulation) at resistance..Wait for the breakout signal.

Don't get to excited, you know it is only the underwriters trying to window dress...

And yes, someone in government could have ties with the much less efficient test, but they would have truck load of ties... there are alot of organisations in the US, with many interests not directly funded by the government (I think)

Point is...anything can happen in this administration....conflict of interest does not exist in USA......but I debate fundamentals...but not the market...celebrate

It pays however, to keep tabs on the medical world and the government,over there----We all know,what PEB really need is a big break and Medicare is that break,unless your happy just stumbling along ,like now....so is Medicare program in a position to make that happen?
Or perhaps one of the big insurance co.s set to make trillions of of Trumps plan (the boys?) If they came around and realized they might save money that could be good.But IMO the biggest hurtle has always been the Doctors themselves..a conservative lot,who may not be particularly keen on abandoning their ole stand by, invasive test.

Quite so, especially if it pays them better. To be fair though, they can't much enjoy performing the invasive test and most will have their patient's interest at heart. (Whatever happened to 'first do no harm'? - choosing a painful and undignified test over a better non invasive test must fit somewhere on the harm scale. )

True..but ts possible it may take the next generation of doctors for that----Im sure the old codgers are not thinking ''im gonna do this undignified invasive test ''.....Its just ''the test''
