LifeVest Wearable Defibrillator

LifeVest is a wearable defibrillator . Unlike an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), LifeVest is worn outside the body rather than implanted in the chest.

Cost

Insurance covers most of the cost, but the LifeVest runs $3,370 a month to lease. The LifeVest continuously monitors the patient's heart, and if a life-threatening heart rhythm is detected, the device delivers a treatment shock to restore normal heart rhythm.



That's why I have a GoFundMe page for that. Medical costs killed me in 2019
