Thanks for posting this Lily, this is great news for so many. I knew it was coming back up, but things here had been so hectic, I honestly had not looked to see what had happened with it. I have been fortunate so far with my meds and all, but I am sure that there are others that this will definately help. I am also glad to see that the docs are going to be getting a raise, albeit small, but a raise all the same. I know my docs would have continued to see me, but again, there are others that would have been in a world of hurt. Thanks again for sharing the great news.

Hope things are going well for you down under.

Lily,

Thanks for the info.

Someday maybe medicare will get its act together...at least this is a step in the right direction.

I tried to get a bathing seat and support handles for the shower...I falll..,through medicare.

Answer is no. You must fall and get injured first. Penny wise and dollar foolish. I guess baby steps are better than none.
