Watching my mom struggle every day with Lymphodema, brought a whole new perspective about this long term horrible problem people like her have to deal with. This includes the whole family. Watching my mom suffer, makes me depressed too. These pumps can literally help so many people continue to live life and not have to stop surviving. Helping people with Lymphodema get these pumps won’t only help the person suffering, it will also help the family members around them too. Seeing that your loved ones are getting help is the best thing in the world!

These pumps save lives! Please allow Oregon to be one of the states that allow these pumps to help people like me affected by Lymphodema. We need this in order to feel sane so we can still work and live our lives despite the daily challenges we suffer.

A pump can help to reduce costs for patients in the long run by decreasing the risk for infections and wounds and decreasing the need for follow up PT

All Oregon Medicaid people should be able to access this therapy, just like people with other insurances.

Lymphedema is a chronic and progressive disorder. If untreated will cost health care much more $ with wound care and infection treatments. By treating it, the patient can be healthy.

I have seen first hand how pneumatic compression can improve the quality of life in OR patients. This should be available to all patients who suffer from Lymphedema, regardless of their income. Please help our OR patients get these devices, to better control their chronic condition from home, which will in turn, save the Medicaid programs money, in the long term.

As someone who has loved one's who suffer from lymphedema I have seen first hand the life changing benefits of pneumatic compression. My dad can once again fit into his shoes and enjoy a round of golf. He has his life back! Please make this available for Oregon Medicaid members.

Help our Medicaid OR patients get the care they so desperately need at home. These patients suffer in silence and together we can change the quality of lives for patients now and for years to come.
