Who would have thought that the simple...Well darn. Who would have thought that the simpler tube would be considered "fancy" by the doctor. Don't understand that one! <br />I agree, think it all depends on which doctor you happen to get. <br />Also agree about home health visits. Our home health is good, but always later than they thought they would be, and their helpfulness varied. Also have to be homebound to qualify.

You can expect more of the buy-it-yourself ...Diane,<br />You can expect more of the buy-it-yourself with the medicare cuts. The good news is you can bill medicare with the receipts...it will only take 6 months for the reimbursement. But at least it's not totally out of pocket.<br /><br />I'm glad you have a nursing service to help with Bob's peg tube. They can be cantankerous at best. A shower curtain hook from a coat stand works well.<br /><br />So much for a relaxing mind set for Bob's injection. lol those lizards are out to get you. The new needles make it easy to inject patients once you get over the first time. Of course I have plenty of practice between being a nurse and a diabetic. IM shots may be difficult when dealing with thin people, but normal people it's hit the biggest muscle group. IV shots take practice.J.L.
