�17 Dr. Oakley wrote a prescription for a handicapped accessiblevan. The prescription is on a prescription pad and is found at Exhibit
1 at page 27. It was written on July 30, 2002, and states, "Rx
Handicap accessible van." In his deposition, Dr. Oakley justified his
prescription on the claimant's need for physical therapy in Bozeman
and for follow-up visits in Billings every one to three months. (Oakley
Dep. at 19, 25-26.) Dr. Oakley also testified it would be helpful for
the claimant to obtain psychiatric counseling, however, such
counseling is not readily available due to a shortage of psychiatrists in
Montana. (Id. at 15.) Finally, he testified that a van would enable the
claimant to get out more and thereby improve his mental health. (Id. at
26.)
