You need to be assessed by a Consultant Physician
specialising in respiratory (thoracic) medicine, cardiology, or oncology. They
will ask you to undertake some tests to determine whether you will benefit from
supplementary oxygen and that your results comply with the Thoracic Society of
Australia and New Zealand (TSANZ) Guidelines.
Based on your test results your specialist will determine what oxygen equipment you need and how often you will need to use it.
Your specialist will complete an online application
form and supporting documents for the equipment you need, on your behalf.
Once your eligibility is confirmed SWEP will order the required oxygen equipment from the equipment Supplier, who will deliver it to your nominated address.
