@AndreaThome I think he would have stayed but he had a rock that suggested Philly as I recall. Saw him play in canton with manny in the day. 2 of my favorites ever.
@VivekGRamaswamy Please do something about this. My property value increased 70% the last 6 years. My wages increased less than 20%. Every other expense increase by 50% at least. The heart of it all needs help. @VivekGRamaswamy save the heart of it all.
NCART is pleased to announce that H.R. 1703, the Choices for Increased Mobility Act, passed the U.S. Senate by unanimous consent and will now go to the President for consideration.
The legislation addresses Medicare payment rules for ultralightweight manual wheelchairs and would restore Medicare beneficiaries' ability to choose titanium or carbon fiber upgrades while paying the additional cost associated with those materials.
This is an issue we have lobbied and advocated for many years. This was a priority for CRT manufacturers, suppliers, @aahomecare , state associations, iNRRTS, US Rehab, @RESNAorg , Clinician Task Force, Consumer Groups, and other stakeholders.
A special shout-out to John Goetz and Mickae Lee of Permobil, Jay Witter of AAHomecare, Seth Johnson from @pridemobility , and Michael Hughes from Motion Composites. Their work and recognition of this issue as a problem that needed a solution is what started this process.
The next step is consideration by the President. We will share additional information as it becomes available.
@Johnny_Millers Almost 40 years I think. 3 names prior at the shop in Akron Motion Designs brought the 1st main stream ULW to the market. Angels sang above it on the prep bench. Been a fan all my life!!!
We're excited to announce that Andrina Sabet, PT, ATP, will be one of our featured speakers at the 33rd Annual Virginia Miller Educational Seminar this October!
Earlier this year, Andrina was a featured presenter at Miller's Columbus Mobility Conference, where she received outstanding reviews from attendees. We're excited to welcome her back to share her expertise once again at this year's seminar.
Andrina is the head of the Wheelchair Clinic at Cleveland Clinic Children's Hospital for Rehabilitation and is a nationally and internationally recognized leader in pediatric mobility, presenting to audiences across the United States and around the world.
Her session, "An ON Time Approach to Powered Mobility: Why We Should Be Using It Sooner!", will challenge therapists to rethink traditional approaches to pediatric power mobility through the lens of neuroscience and developmental psychology. Rather than viewing power mobility as a last resort, Andrina will explore how introducing it earlier can foster independence, engagement, participation, and improved developmental outcomes for children with disabilities and developmental delays.

Today, we recognize the anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)โa landmark law that was signed by President Bush on July 26, 1990 that helped create greater access, inclusion, and opportunities for millions of Americans.
At Millerโs, we're honored to support that mission every day by providing durable medical equipment that empowers individuals to live with greater independence, confidence, and dignity.
Accessibility is more than a standardโit's a commitment to ensuring everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
Happy ADA Anniversary! Together, we continue building stronger, more inclusive communities.
