Personal Health Budgets for people using the wheelchair service
During your assessment a clinician will work with you to identify your needs and what you want from your wheelchair. You will be given a personal health budget that is equivalent to the cost of your prescribed wheelchair. Depending on the type of personal health budget you have, you could have the option to top up the budget which may allow you to add an additional feature to your prescribed wheelchair or you could use your personal health budget to a buy a wheelchair from another approved supplier.
