Right Wheelchair Campaign


 
Right Wheelchair is dedicated to removing Medicare’s restrictive “in-the-home” interpretation that limits beneficiary access to needed wheelchairs and scooters. Right Wheelchair is a joint project of United Spinal Association, ITEM Coalition and the Clinician Task Force.
Medicare believes that wheelchairs are needed for use In The Home Only. Do you? Advocate for independence and the Right Wheelchair.
