14 Va. Admin. Code § 10-10-90

Current through Register Vol. 40, No. 22, June 17, 2024

Section 14VAC10-10-90 - Equipment

A. Equipment documented as medically necessary by the admitted claimant's physician will be provided by the Virginia Birth-Related Neurological Injury Compensation Program (Program). Because there is a gamut of equipment that may be provided, no attempt is made to list all such equipment in this section. Equipment provided to date, however, includes oxygen concentrators, bipap machines, feeding pumps, gait trainers, wheelchairs, Wizard strollers, suction machines, apnea monitors, IV poles, pulse oximeters, therapy balls, therapy mats, Gorilla car seats, wheelchair lifts, and wheelchair tie-downs.

B. All medically necessary equipment (except vans) purchased entirely by the Program remains the property of the Program. Depending upon the type of equipment and its condition, it is expected that equipment will be returned to the Program when no longer required by the admitted claimant. The family may purchase the equipment if a purchase price is agreed upon with the Executive Director of the Program. If the equipment is not purchased entirely by the Program it does not have to be returned to the Program.
