Medicare is the Problem
I talked with Dr. D's nurse today about the lack of physical therapy and the need for oxygen or some help with Bill's breathing. She said that Medicare will not allow him to have oxygen until his resting blood oxygen level is 88%. She says she can do nothing to obtain oxygen for him at this point. We may be too far past the broken back to qualify for physical therapy, so we still seek answers.
