Overcoming Disability
With the Aid of Handicap Scooters

This isn’t to say there won’t still be challenges. Nobody chooses to live with a disability, and even the best scooter available won’t restore natural mobility. However, a good scooter gives options to those of us who have been confronted with unique hurdles to jump.

The first recreational and transportation electric scooters were actually built in the 19th Century. It wasn’t until the late 1960s that Allen R Thieme created the first handicap scooter, the Amigo, for his wife who had been suffering from Multiple Sclerosis. Today, several companies, like PaceSaver, have taken the idea and run with it, creating scooters to fit every need and every lifestyle.

PaceSaver sets itself apart from the average handicap scooters manufacturer by sticking to an all American Made policy. By having each and every part and each every product built and stored in American factories and warehouses, the company is able to keep a hands on approach to the production process. This allows for the FDA to perform an inspection on each scooter before it leaves for your doorstep. American Made simply means a safer, more reliable, and more dependable product.

If you hope to have Medicare cover your scooter purchase, make sure to discuss your needs with your doctor before making your selection. Medicare will cover the cost as long as you have a prescription at the time of purchase, but will not reimburse a purchase.
