I am on workers' compensation because my back injury occured at a crisis response training session in front of about 25 witnesses. I haven't seen or heard much from individuals with medicare on this site or in the community. According to my surgeon and underwriting insurance company, many people covered by medicare do not qualify for ADR because of their age. Even I had to appeal my case to the state board to have ADR rather than fusion, and I was 34 at the time of my injury. If I receive any updated information this week, I will keep you in mind.
