The Journey to your wheelchair
1. Initial Evaluation
A physical therapy evaluation is required to determine what equipment best suits your needs. Your PT will work with your equipment vendor to recommend and write a letter of medical necessity (LOMN) to apply for insurance coverage.
2. Demos & Specks
Precision Rehab recommends you demo the equipment you are interested in. Once you select your equipment, we will use our clinical expertise along with your vendor to customize your equipment specs based on your measurements and personal function and mobility.
3. Fitting & Delivery
Your PT and vendor will collaborate to properly position and set you up in your new wheelchair. This is essential to adjust your new wheelchair to fit you perfectly and optimize your performance in your new wheelchair.
