Title: Re: [QUAD-L] Another Medicare ?

Medicaid & Medicare pay for all of those things Stacy. You need 2 talk 2 your medical supply company and see whats needed 2 get those things provided under  coverage. I get all those supplies covered by medicaid except the stockngs & that’s just because I don’t wear them. If I did I’m sure that they’d be covered. I talked to neighbors that have Medicare & there supplies are covered. I now that medicaid may be a little different from state 2 state  but medicare should be the same across the country.

Neither Medicare or Medicaid pay for magic bullets, or any suppository, blue pads, or anything like that and to my surprise wont cover compression stockings.  They are something that a lot of people need for circulation pretty badly.  I know personally my legs and feet swell beyond belief without them.  You would think something like those things would be covered.  They wont cover mattress overlays unless you have a pressure sore but will cover the hospital visit if you have an infected or super deep sore but now they are cutting funds for Medicare and Medicaid.  Just plain silly

I know Medicaid will not pay for magic bullets because it can  be bought
'over the counter'.  Not the bullets in particular, but the  equivilant.  The
vendor I get my 'chucks' ,blue pads, from has never  said anything about
any -care or -caid paying for them.

Will Medicare cover Magic Bullets and or Enemez?
Or the  "BluePads" that go under you?
