How much is covered
ADP pays 75% of the price for mobility aids. You must pay the remaining 25% of the cost.
Follow these four steps to apply:
- Get examined by a physiotherapist registered with the ADP. This will confirm that you need a mobility aid and determine which type best suits your needs.
- Fill out the application form with the help of a physiotherapist.
- Find a business registered with the ADP to sell you the mobility aid. Your physiotherapist can help you.
