Trends

“In today’s reimbursement environment, providers are looking at total cost of doing business versus the initial purchase price of a power wheelchair. Now providers are looking at power wheelchair design in terms of reliability, serviceability and flexibility — more options on the chair to meet more needs of the physician — to meet more consumer needs.”
