PITTSBURGH – The University of Pittsburgh, in collaboration with other investigators, seeks feedback on a new coverage policy for complex rehabilitation technology. UPitt has launched a short survey with a series of 10 questions asking for stakeholder feedback on certain elements that should be included in a new policy, such as timeliness, repairs/maintenance, communication, accountability and durability. It seeks feedback from a variety of stakeholders, including people who use wheelchairs, caregivers, clinicians, suppliers, manufacturers, technicians, policy makers and funding sources. UPitt will not gather any identifiable information on those who complete the survey, but it does ask some demographic questions, such as country of residence, first three digits and/or letters of zip/postal code, and primary stakeholder group. It will aggregate the results and use them for consideration in developing a new policy. To take the survey, go here. To learn more about the project, go here.
