the real issues with these devices is that they are proprietary devices with insecure wireless connections, so if the company goes out of business your heart shuts down, or if they don't have good firmware your heart gets hacked. Same is true for insulin pumps, and a whole host of other medical devices.
There are just some things that shouldn't be private IP, or proprietary software, or even comodified under capitalism. This is one of them.

In the context of the article, it seems like "wireless" is being used to refer to the wired leads and not RF communication.
