National Call-in Day for Complex Rehab Technology

Help assure access for individuals with disabilities to the Complex Rehabilitation Technology they require!

  • Mark the date to call your Members of Congress on February 16th.
  • Tell Congress you support a Separate Benefit Category for Complex Rehab Technology (CRT) under Medicare.
  • Tell Congress to eliminate Medicare’s “In the Home” restriction for CRT products.
  • Encourage your friends and family to call too.

Complex Rehab Technology (CRT) products are defined as medically necessary, individually configured devices that require evaluation, configuration, fitting, adjustment or programming. Examples of CRT include individually configured manual wheelchair systems, power wheelchair systems, adaptive seating systems, alternative positioning systems and other mobility devices. These products and services are designed to meet the specific and unique medical, physical, and functional needs of an individual with a primary diagnosis resulting from a congenital disorder, progressive or degenerative neuromuscular disease, or from certain types of injury or trauma.
