Your physician determines the right power mobility solution for you based on your medical needs.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) allows for a power chair or POV/Scooter to be prescribed by the beneficiary's treating physician or practitioner. However, due to the relative safety risks associated with POV/Scooters compared to power chairs, CMS recommends that POV/Scooters be prescribed by a Rheumatologist, Neurologist, Physiatrist, or Orthopedist.
