If you support the rights of Americans with Disabilities, please take five minutes to ask your representatives to Amend the US Senate's most recent Covid-19 Assistance Bill (HCBS).

United Spinal Association has made it really easy for you to ask our legislators to help US Citizens in need without rolling back hard fought rights of citizens with disabilities.

Thank you!

This is National Complex Rehab Technology Week. It is sponsored by the NCART (National Coalition for Assistive and Rehab Technology). Typically, NCART would hold it's annual Day on the Hill advocating with Legislators to help protect access to Complex Rehab for people with disabilities. Well, thanks to Covid-19 that is not happening this year.

Those who know; well we know. If you know.... go help yourself and others by clicking the link below and sending a letter to you Representative!

For those that don't know..... Many of you are probably wondering what is Complex Rehab. It is a broad category but whats improtant to know is that under Medicare/Medicaid almost all Complex Rehab Equipment, my Manual Wheelchair included, is lumped into the same category as walkers, canes, crutches, standard hospital wheelchairs, and more.

The problem, this makes my wheelchair subject to the same super restrictive benefit, eligibility, and cost rules as those other simple pieces of equipment.

Please take a few minutes to follow the link and message your Representative to urge them to support fair access to Complex Rehab Technology and Equipment. Trust me, you all know at least one person who's life who not be the same without the type of wheelchair I use every day.
