Under the Obama run health care system,Can i still get my electric wheelchair free or at little cost to me?

Don't let it break down !! Because The amendments made by

subsection (a) will take effect on January 1, 2011, and will apply to power-driven wheelchairs furnished on or after that date. Such amendments will not apply to contracts entered into under section 1847 of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1395w–3) which allows medicaid to pay 80%. The new Bill states that ' pursuant to a bid submitted under such section before October 1, 2010, under sub may be phased in first among the highest cost and highest volume items and services or those items and services that the Secretary determines have the largest savings potential'. Another words, As of Jan.1,2011 if there's a cheaper alternative you will no longer qualify for a ‘‘complex rehabilitative power-driven wheel chair".

Anyone who voted for Obama because they thought they'd get free health care wasn't paying attention. Obama clearly stated that he was not for Universal Health Care. He may be working toward that now, it's hard to say with the 8 or so plans floating around Congress and his current rhetoric. I didn't vote for him based on his health care plans. There are a few reasons why health care is costing so much and I think that insurance companies play too much of a role in this. In my state, many doctors tried to lower their rates so that more people could afford care but if they did that, the insurance carriers said they wouldn't reimburse the doctors. That is a huge hurdle to overcome. We need to kick the insurance companies out of the way. They should have no say in how Americans are going to be covered. They can just adapt to the new laws. If they want to be at the table then they can simply run for office. Lobbyists are causing this thing to cost far more than it needs to cost.

That is a good question if you are talking about medicare, you might want to do it now if you are going to, before things change. Medicare fund would be cut by 500 billion part of which would be reinvested from taxes and premiums over time, and the standard for care would drop to 'cost effective'. There is a lot of debate over what exactly that means, since it isn't clear in the bills. However, in other countries, care has been rationed.

Government health insurance would be an option. Private insurance companies would still be an option, too. It will be the choice of the consumer as to who they want to get their insurance from. Private insurance companies would undoubtedly have to lower the premiums they charge people if they want to remain competitive if a government program becomes an alternative.

Yes. That company will still be able to charge your "privet" (whatever that is) insurance company.

maybe not through medicare anymore, but the scooter store may be able to help people (such as yourself) with limited mobility.

yes. But they will placed under GM and Chrysler bodies!
