My
understanding is that medical insurance (Medicaid, Medicare, 3rd party
health
insurance) will only pay for equipment that is medically
necessary. At this point, I have not heard of any health
insurance
deeming computer access equipment as medically necessary.
Sorry.
Also,
be aware that different versions of Dragon Naturally Speaking have the
ability to control different things (i.e.: internet, macros).
What
the individual wants to control will determine which Dragon is most
appropriate.
