Had clinic on Wednesday and was given another prescription for a PWC. They wrote a script last time, but I didn't follow through. I have an older worn PWC that was given to me, so I let the script lapse.
The clinic has their own DME. But after he told me he only has Quantum wheelchairs, I already knew didn't want that chair because of the issues that have been raised here. Midwheel, jerky, shiny lemon, etc.
There is a Numotion dealer near where I live and am going to call them and set up a demo ride appointment. As so many have suggested here.
After reading previous posts, I have learned that other people will be involved during this process.
Does the DME set these people in motion? Or do I need to arrange everything? Would I just present the prescription to them? Or do they need to contact the Dr?
I have medicare and UnitedHealth supplement.
And, I want a permobil as so many PALS have recommended.
