My only insurance as Medicare and it paid for all of my Permobile [wait, back then I was able to afford a Medicare supplemental insurance policy and I think they had to cover the 20% that Medicare did not]. But Medicare was the primary payer.

Hi Lori,
I had an Everest and Jennings power wheelchair from 74-03, and I always had back neck and shoulder pain and I felt hunched over plus needing to be pulled up in my care, all the time, which I don't experience in my Permobile. I seemed to fall over and much more, not staying straight. I still have a world that is a problem because of my broken left leg. That was not repaired because of osteoporosis and the hip disintegrated causing me to lean to the left.
It was so interesting to hear that you had the same problems with your chair.
Has anyone ever gotten a Permoble from Medicare. I just wondered what will happen when I go from the insurance to Medicare, when my stepmother retires, I have always wondered.
Thank God my insurance changed.
Dana.
