In order to get powered wheelchair such as a Hoveround, your friend will need to have a thorough mobility evaluation by her doctor. Medicare will pay most or all of the cost for the electric wheelchair if your friend qualifies and depending on the type of medical insurance she has. Please tell her this and have her go to her doctor, or call the helpful people at Hoveround for more information. Good luck It is wonderful how much you care about your former classmate.

She now has a old regular wheelchair that is too high off the ground with armrests that are too high. She is active enough to get out in the garden, but finds it hard to reach down, and gets sore shoulders hand from pushing the chair. Does she need a OK from her Doctor? she doesn't really have any knowlegeable people around to help her, and I am a retired RPT and would love to surpise her with a new chair, she does have Medicare.
