Dear
Practitioner,
We
would like to clarify which application category should be chosen when applying
for a swivel bath chair as we are seeing different categories being selected
for this item. We also understand that current practice is seeing the incorrect
subsidy amount being provided.
This
item could come under bathing or transfer but the intention of this item is to
assist the consumer to transfer into the bath so please submit these requests
on the transfer application/category.
This allows us to apply a subsidy of $200 under basic transfer
equipment.
Any
applications we have received to date which have been assessed at the $500
limit will still be provided this dollar amount. Any applications received after
19th September 2021 the $200 subsidy will be applied.
We
have updated our quotable pick list catalogue to remove from bathing the S1.6
basic transfer bench.
A
new pick list code has been created under the transfer pick list of Z1.9 swivel
bath chair that you can choose for this item. For any bath transfer bench or basic transfer
equipment please use quotable picklist code Z1.9 - the description on this item
has been updated also.
If
you have any queries or feedback on this above please email swep@bhs.org.au
