I believe you have to have a prescription from your doctor to get help from the insurance. Patti Patti is correct as far as the State of Michigan goes, although when I have been real sick, there are personal care providers who will set those things up sor you at no cost. I don't know about other States or companies, but Blue Care Network, has helped me in many instances where it just blew me away b/c it was so unexpected. For one thing, finding out about the Personal Care Providership has helped me immensely. Cheryl, my assigned Nurse, Social Worker, Insurance Provider has been a God-send. When I was real sick, she called me every day, she set me up with home health care nurses and physicians, she recently has arranged for nurses to come out once a week to check on my pressure sores. She helped me get my new wheelchair, my Hoyer Lift, and other Durable Health Equipment...what ever I need, she has seen that I have gotten it in a timely manner. I don't know what I would do without her. She has also set up referrals and things like that...just about everything...she is there for me. Check with your company, maybe there is a program like that set up for you. If I can be of any more help regarding this information, let me know...maybe I can give you a few more ideas.
