Dotsie, you might want to see if a physical therapist will write a prescription for the chair. Originally the insurance company did not want to pay for a light wieght chair, but when I called and let them know that I would need to lift it in and out of the car and how much I weighed, they covered the extra expense.

Do get it fitted before you buy. And D's chair has a great gel filled seat that is very comfortable. He highly recommends it.
