Children Hospital.Can we get the brace for free or low cost.We do not have any insurance.Thank you for your advice. At this point I need financial advice before any other questions
Hi there A state children hospital should be able to provide you with a low cost Back brace. Please ask your doctors about this. If they don't then ask them for the specific name and size because this matters and then search for it and see how much actually it costs, if can't afford it then turn to social media and as for help, describe your case and POST details of the brace, I am sure someone out there has used and has grown out of it but it still is in good condition and can give it to you for free or for low cost.
