Yes, a certified Assistive Technology Professional (ATP) plays a central role throughout the custom motorized wheelchair ordering and intake process. As your partner in mobility freedom, the team at MedEquipped includes certified ATP assessors who guide you from the initial evaluation to final delivery.

An ATP helps with the process in the following ways:

• Clinical Foundation: The journey begins with a comprehensive ATP mobility evaluation. The professional assesses your physical needs, strength, posture, and home environment to lay the groundwork for a personalized system.
• Complex Rehab Technology (CRT): The ATP identifies and recommends specific complex rehab technology and custom configurations that match your unique anatomy and lifestyle, which is a requirement for funding and safety.
• Documentation Support: Following the assessment, the ATP compiles a detailed ATP Evaluation Report. This report is a critical piece of the prior authorization package submitted to insurance providers, as it details your specific seating and positioning needs.
• Custom Configuration: Once insurance is approved, the ATP ensures every detail—including frame type, seating systems, and control interfaces—is specified correctly before the order is placed with manufacturers.

MedEquipped’s certified team handles the coordination and paperwork associated with these steps, typically completing the process within a 30-60 day timeline.
