Medicare typically does not pay for standers, but Medicaid has. The coverage depends on your state, and a good letter of medical necessity from your doctor or PT. There is a lot of info on funding the EasyStand website if you want to learn more.
There are standing frames and standing wheelchairs. Jadian has an EasyStand Evolv standing frame. There is a lot of information on funding on easystand . com
keep up the good work, I have l-1-2-3-4 & 5 fused, although I didn't have a complete injury, but if you haven't tried Water Therapy, for goodness sakes, give it a shot, insurance will pay for it, you're weightless in water and if you have any sensations at all you will benefit from water therapy, I finally was able to get out of a chair and use a walker to get around, something my doc said I would never do given my age (58), so keep up the faith and good work, and Please try the water therapy!!!
Very interesting...

Does anyone know if Medicare would pay for one of these standing frames?
