Benefits of AT Reuse
What is AT Reuse?
Benefits Of Reuse
- Provides free or low-cost refurbished equipment on a permanent basis when funding is limited or there is no insurance coverage.
- Helps keep our homes and storage spaces green by reusing unused equipment; great for the environment.
- Provides interim equipment on a short-term basis while waiting for approval from insurance or a repair to existing equipment.
- Helps bridge the gap between what will benefit the user, and what the insurance company will cover due to annual coverage limits and higher DME deductibles.
- Provides tax benefits (write-offs) for donors of used equipment and makes a positive impact on health care costs.
- Saves dollars for both the state and consumers by ensuring equipment is being used for the full value of its lifecycle.
- Solves the issue of greater difficulty in qualifying for AT/DME authorizations and provides for duplicate devices in warranted situations (i.e., both a manual and power wheelchair).
