Open source everything. Wheelchair life is something you don’t think about unless you, a friend or family member needs one. Not only are the chairs and parts expensive but getting the parts can also be a problem. I’ve been told by a wheelchair parts manufacturer “if insurance doesn’t cover this, we can’t sell it to you, even if you pay out of pocket”.
That to me shows that it’s a broken system. Thanks for posting and bringing awareness.
