The ITEM Coalition is collecting stories on how federal health programs and private plans’ coverage policies are promoting or impeding the everyday ability of Americans with disabilities of all ages to gain access to the assistive devices and technologies they need to live as healthy, independent and functional as possible. Personal stories from individuals are often the most effective tools to raising awareness among policymakers, the press and the public about the need for enhancing coverage of assistive technologies.

We, therefore, invite and encourage you to tell us how your everyday lives or the lives of someone you know are affected by Medicare, Medicaid, other federal health programs or private plans’ coverage policies related to assistive devices, technologies and related services:

If you would like us to share your story as part of the Coalition’s public education campaign, please include contact information, including your name and a phone number where we may reach you.
