"When you have a disability, keeping healthy
presents a whole new range of challenges. Prescription drugs and invasive
treatments can cause unwanted side effects, and neither health insurance nor
Medicaid covers alternative treatments such as acupuncture and massage therapy.
That means that Americans with disabilities must either find a way to pay for
these alternatives or resign themselves to the deficiencies of traditional
medicine. The Chanda Plan Foundation says there is a third option. The
non-profit organization is dedicated to providing the disabled with funds
through grants to access alternative treatments. For more information, please
