Ramping Up your Home: Episode 3 of 2022

The month of March has two important dates. March 1st is International Wheelchair Day. March 12th is the 34th anniversary of the Fair Housing Act amendment that made it officially effective that disabilities are a protected basis; no more grace year.  Making this month all about wheelchair housing. One of the most fundamental modifications for wheelchair users is ramps. Ramps are more than just for wheelchair users, ramps have been used by the able body community as well. 

One of the crucial pieces of information for anyone is how am I going to pay for a ramp? Health insurances, whether private or medicare, are focused on providing necessary medical services. The qualifications to cover ramps have changed in recent years for the better. In this episode, you will learn  the following about ramps:

• How to pay for your ramp either through your health insurance or financial assistance?
• What kind of ramps is available for a wheelchair user to gain entry to his or her home?
• How to select the type of ramp?
