It kind of feels like the  breaks come on while driving sometimes. Other

OK, if you wish.  I'm not here to change your mind or anyone  else's  
Pre-conceived Notions are impossible to dispel. Have you actually  talked with 
someone at Medicare/Medicaid.   Good Luck in your  journey.  I truly hope you 
win.

Bet ya dollar to donuts Medicare/Medicaid will pay for the repairs to your  
chair, but not thru the provider who is trying to get a new chair.  Call  
Medicaid/Medicare and ask for yourself and a referral to a repair provider. 2 
 that I know of are Wheelchair & Scooter Repair-Solutions in Maryland  
888-584-3095 The other is X-Med in Texas.  These companies can only repair,  
and 
not sell them.
Hope it works for you as Knowledge is POWER.
