A guide by Lizzie Sordia provides essential information on obtaining medical equipment and supplies for individuals with Angelman syndrome through insurance or Medicaid. It outlines the steps to secure coverage, including obtaining a prescription from a doctor, writing a Letter of Medical Necessity, and working with a Durable Medical Equipment (DME) provider. The guide lists commonly covered equipment such as wheelchairs, incontinence products, communication devices, bath chairs, and orthotics. It also offers guidance on appealing insurance denials and finding alternative funding sources if coverage is denied.
