Barbie -up with the HCWA plan we had a LOT of phone calls to medicare. I got all the item numbers the OT had to use, they chnaged thier number - it was a long involved process and a lot of the medicare and providers don't understand the legislation very well - especially as most of the people at medicare don't understand the treatments, diagnoisis or the process that has to be completed. Keep on their backs - ring medicare and ask about the processing of your providers application.

Haven't investigated the mental health care plan yet - that is next on my to-do list :-)
