For those not reading the story, which appears to be many, the company that services the implant went bankrupt. The implant was experimental. There exists no one to service it any longer. It will pose a health risk down the road without someone servicing it.
The only thing that forced her to have the implant removed is the fact that it would eventually lead to her untimely death if it remained in with no one to take care of the device.
@IHeartBadCode @flumph this is why we can't have Musk offering brain implants through his "Neurolink" company. He'll be busto and presumably in jail in the next 5 years. Thus, anything he tries to implant will be out of warranty. Musk is the biggest ponzi of all time.
