Petition Opposing Adoption of Medicare PMD Coverage Policy
and Fee Schedule, Effective November 15, 2006

As consumers of healthcare, we the undersigned, appeal to Secretary of Health and Human Services Michael Leavitt to delay for six months the implementation of a policy and fee schedule. This will drastically reduce the ability of people with severe disabilities such as ALS, muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injury and severe brain injury to receive the funding they need to secure the proper power wheelchair and accessories required to lead productive and rewarding lives that would otherwise limit their world to their homes, to their beds, or even worse, to nursing homes.
