One of these days, I'm gonna get my wish! I'm not going to give up until I do.
So let's do it ONE MORE TIME ~~~ For the Eighth (8th) TIME!~~~~ WOOHOO!!
I am disabled, on SSI. I have degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, fibromyalgia, lymphedema, and a whole bunch of other things wrong with my body. Washington State Medicaid will not pay for an electric scooter for me, because my house is too small for one. I don't need it for inside the house, anyway. 20 steps will take me anywhere I want to go, and I can do that with my walker. I need the scooter for outside. Getting around is very difficult for me, and I use a walker. But on some terrain, and for long distances, a walker is not very feasable. I would like to be able to go to certain places with my husband, but can't, because of my limited mobility. A scooter would help in this regard. Please support this wish, as I have no other way of getting one. Thank you. (more)

My mother has many of the disabling ailments you have. She as well, was in pain and required assistance to get around. Mom was fortunate and got a scooter through her health insurance. Everyone please vote for this lady!! There is nothing more disheartening than to have your independence taken away simply because of lack of money. Good luck You've got my 5!!!

If a doctor prescribes the scooter then would Medicare cover it?

you have my 5.... best of luck to you....
Don't stop here.. try all options through local and state funding for medical needed items....
Good luck
okay, guessing you aren't going to get your wish this time either, let me make a few suggestions. First try the Mobility Store at [ link ] These are wonderful people who will bill just about any insurance you can think of in an attempt to get you, your chair for free. Second, contact your state healthcare provider. As that you are disabled, and on SSI you are entitled to your state health care. Usually your health care provider doesn't want you to know they will pay for a chair outright if your Doctor says you need it. That would mean they have to pay for something. And lastly there are alot of groups in your community that help with things, especially those you would never think of. The Lions, The Knights of Columbus, The Masons, are all groups that help in very specific ways (Masons=Shriners Hospital; Lions=glasses) However, if you contact your local chapter, quite often the members of the orginization have funds that they might let you have for a worthwhile cause. Good luck.
you got my 5
Good luck!
