Ripoff

This may seem very unusual, as I was not ripped off for money but for something very important to me. It is called time.
I am a lifelong diabetic & been in a wheelchair for two years from a fall. My ankle was seriously broken in two places. My doctors finally said I could start walking with the aid of brace & walker.
I obtained my brace through medicare, then was taken to First Choice Medical Supply to obtain my walker. I gave them the prescription. This was to be done through Medicare/Medical. I thought all was understood, & was told they would contact me as soon as it was approved.
After almost three months, First Choice was contacted & I was told they could not do anything. They knew medicare would not pay for it & they were unable to work with Medi-Cal right now. I also called a couple of times and told not to worry that they would contact me when they heard anything.
In essence, they couldn't find my file & they had done nothing. I do not feel that disabled persons should not be treated as second class citizens or even less than that. That wasted time was very valuable to me.
