Powerchair For Mobility Posted: 12-25-05 14:20pm
Does anyone here use an electric
wheelchair or a power scooter to get
around inside and out? I have been very
limited to do anything that requires a lot
of walking and I wondered if insurance
company's will pay and what the chances
are that the dr will give you a
perscription for one

Some insurance companies do cover wheel
chairs or electic scooters, just ask your
Dr. To write a prescription for one.
Good luck!
