At least once a week, a professional medical biller gets a phone call from a patient. âI got a bill from my insurance company,â the patient says. This is despite the fact that the top of the paper they are holding says, âTHIS IS NOT A BILL.â Patients think it is a bill because it looks like a medical bill.

If you have a bad right knee, it needs the help to bear the weight-which is the whole purpose of using the cane. It's acting as a third leg alongside, to help bear the weight the knee can't.
Once you reach the top, go back to swinging. When going down the stairs, let the cane tip fall onto the next step and then step down to it. For a smoother descent push the cane forward along the step and allow the cane drop two steps below, so that it is always a step ahead of you. Keep the cane from swinging to allow other people to use the stairs.
