The BCIR is done at two hospitals in Florida.
One at Palms of Pasadena in St. Pete.

The other place is St. Anthony's Hospital.

The BCIR is very similar to the Kock pouch, but has what is called a 'living collar' on the inside of the pouch which is 'supposed' to keep the valve more stable and results in less valve slippage.
