The Pennsylvania Adaptive Equipment Agency Policy Manual provides a comprehensive operational framework for agencies delivering adaptive equipment and assistive technology services to individuals with disabilities, older adults, and others requiring supportive devices in Pennsylvania. This manual aligns with the regulations established by the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services (DHS), including applicable sections of the Pennsylvania Medicaid Provider Manual and state licensing standards. It also ensures compliance with Medicaid waiver programs such as the Consolidated Waiver, the Community Living Waiver, the Person/Family Directed Support (P/FDS) Waiver, and the Community HealthChoices (CHC) Waiver, as well as federal programs under the Assistive Technology Act of 2004. The manual includes policies and procedures governing agency licensing and certification, client eligibility and assessment, adaptive equipment evaluations, device selection and customization, procurement and delivery, installation and training, equipment maintenance and repair, staff qualifications and training, client rights and protections, safety standards, documentation and billing, and quality assurance. It promotes a person-centered approach to ensure individuals receive the most appropriate adaptive equipment to enhance their independence, mobility, communication, and overall quality of life. This manual serves as a foundational resource for adaptive equipment agencies in Pennsylvania, ensuring the delivery of high-quality, compliant services that empower individuals to live independently and participate fully in their communities.
