Can't evaluate it until then. There are too many unknowns at this point. What is involved in "applying"? How much personal information must be released? What fees, if any, must be paid to join the program? Exactly what benefits accrue with being in the program (i.e. which procedures is one exempted from)? The ongoing pilot study may give hints as to the answers --- but if these questions had all been decided upon already, there would be no need for the pilot study.
Don't get me wrong ... I'm guessing this will be A Good Thing. But I'm only guessing at this point --- and so is everyone else.
