Check with your insurance companies first, some do not cover this, I hear its wonderful but VERY pricey, the one I "drug" out of the sales rep exceeded $6,000. Just a thought to consider and they do require a prescription so you have to sell your doctor on the idea also
Jacksmom, I'm so happy for you! Sorry you've had to wait though.
SarahL, Good idea. I will call my Medicare and my private insurance to see if it's even possible. I may/may not be a good candidate, but it's worth trying!

It is the thigh cuff that helps with the leg weakness. That is why the Prosthetics department is suggesting the complete system for me.

Hi Tammy,
My insurance company has declined paying for it even though I had a prescription. I bought one (about $4000!) I have appealed it and am just waiting to see what happens. I know it was very pricey but I just needed to stop tripping and falling.

Hi Dennis,
When I met with Bioness they never even showed me the thigh cuff, just the one below the knee and the feet. It sounds great. Pleas let me know how this is working for you.
Thanks,
Deb
I wonder what $4000 looks like (grin) never have that much left over anywhere! (giggle)
