About VNS
VNS (Vagus Nerve Stimulation) Therapy® is a treatment that has already been well studied and was approved by the FDA in 2005 for people with dificult-to-treat depression, also called treatment-resistant depression.
But additional evidence of the benefits of VNS Therapy is needed by Medicare and other insurers before they will agree to cover it outside of a clinical trial. The RECOVER study will investigate the use of VNS Therapy in up to 1,000 people across the United States.
