free speech impaired-NY times

Typical of the Insurance megalomaniacs and their "ass-backwards" thought process they have denied people with physical impairments the right to communicate freely within the confines of their own homes and in society.

While their private insurances will pay for some types of accommodations they have followed the Medicare/Medicaid guidelines and will not allow the most basic computer programs that allow a patient to access anything outside of their bureaucratic purview. They will not cover less costly software such as Iphones, and netbook PCs that can "help the speech impaired, despite their usefulness and lower cost..."

Perhaps they should be subjected to the same conditions for 24 hours that these people deal with on a day to day basis and see how they do!
