Post hums

HUMS has become quite a buzzword in the community. To any of you using HUMS equipped helicopters in general what effect has it had on maintenance costs ?. I know in theory it is supposed to detect small defects before they become major and reduce the overhaul/repair costs but in practice is this the case ?. Will the engine manufacturers increase TBO on HUMS equipped aircraft ?
