And batteries, disposables and rechargeables. *---* *---* *---* *---* *---* Life isn't like a box of chocolates...it's more like a jar of jalapenos. & Dreamer Doll ke7nwn E-mail- rclark0276@...

I dont see anything in the guidelines that says batteries of any kind for cochlear implants are not covered. I sure would not hesitate to order new ones if needed. Got a little more than 2 10 pack boxes left, then will order one box and use the rechargeables all the time. *---* *---* *---* *---* *---* I bought some powdered water, but I don't know what to add to it. & Dreamer Doll ke7nwn E-mail- rclark0276charter (DOT) net Home Page- http://webpages. charter.net/ dog_guide/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Gerald, I receive Medicare due to blindness and they cover 80% of costs related to my CIs. Medicare is designed for people with disabilities as well as those aged 65 and older. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
