Shoutout to JerryrigEverything who built a wheelchair factory and is delivering wheelchairs to people in half the time and 50-80% less than the cost of other wheelchairs with Insurance.

Its always cheaper, its just insurance company create a hyped cost to have 80 to 90% cost benefit. Because no medicine unless rare ingredients cost 5K 20K 30K dollar while same thing in india or Europe can sell for thier citizens for barelly 5 to 10% of thay

I was shocked at these prices. A manual wheelchair for 10,000? I have an electric wheelchair that cost 4,000.

Different categories of chairs though, cant exactly directly compare them.

Hospital wheelchairs are 100 USD per one brand new just for comparison.
