Not yet, but I really want to. Have you tried it? Right now Apria doesn't carry it so I'm waiting on them. I contacted both Apria and Respironics. Hopefully...
Medicaid will cover the care for the complications of DMD (ventilators, home care, etc.) when private insurance never will. Private insurance has no interest...
If I'm not mistaken, Medicare/Medicaid denies more claims than private insurance. People always mention the fraud/waste in Medicare/Medicaid/private insurance,...
But it is needed, just like all the other cost saving measures. Right now, a doctor can do nothing wrong. He follows all the established procedures and still...
