The Manual Wheelchairs Bill
Medicare rules for manual wheelchairs get clearer
Choices for Increased Mobility Act of 2026
Mixed: some good, some bad ·
The bill would change Medicare rules so people who need a manual wheelchair might get clearer coverage and payment guidance.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
If passed, the rule could help seniors and disabled folks get their wheelchairs faster, but we need to watch if it limits what Medicare will pay.
