For a resident to qualify, the equipment must be required on a daily basis to provide basic purposeful mobility both inside and outside the home. There must also be a long term need (more than 6 months generally).

Coverage :
There are two levels of coverage. The standard coverage is 75% of the cost up to a set maximum on most of the products. For people on Provincial Assistance (ODSP, Ontario Works Program etc.) the coverage is 100% up to a set maximum. The pricing for mobility equipment is set by ADP and authorized vendors all charge the same amount for ADP approved equipment.
