Low-Cost AT Resources

Why do I need an OT for Low-cost AT?

Some pieces of AT can require an AT assessor, even when they are under $1500. It depends on the item's complexity and whether or not it is considered a "mainstream" or disability specific item - you can liaise with your OT, Support Coordinator and Plan Manager if you're unsure. OTs are often asked to provide supporting evidence to Plan Managers to fund Low-Cost AT. Unity OT does not retrospectively provide support letters if the piece of AT was purchased without OT consultation.
