Question
My father is just getting out of the hospital after 3 months for cellitus from his bed sores. I am bringing him home to my house to live. He is totally bedridden. What is the best product for a person like this. Also how would I get medicare to pay for this?

Answer

Thank you for your inquiry.  ACS Comfort Gel Plus Overlay  is best used for individuals who are not completely bedridden.  Low Air Loss Alternating Pump & Mattress System is a much more effective solution for providing comfort and preventing bed sores for bed confined individuals.  Medicare reviews claims on a case-by-case basis.  Since we do not file for Medicare reimbursements, you may wish to contact a durable medical equipment in your area.

Question
My wife is looking for a full length lift for her entire foot, in order to correct a leg length discrepancy. I am wondering if the lifetime rubber heel lift is full length. The picture shows three different sizes. Two look small, like regular heel lifts, but one looks longer. Is it full length

Answer
Unfortunately, these are only heel lifts, not a complete lift-insole.  There is a company, Elevator Insoles, who has the type of products you're looking for.
