Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right mobility scooter for me?
When choosing a mobility scooter, there’s plenty to take into consideration. For starters, how do you intend to use it? Will it be your primary mode of transport, or something that you’ll be carrying in the boot of your car for use elsewhere? Then there’s the following to think about:
•Available budget
•Maximum distance between charges
•Weight capacity
•Speed & size
At Balance Mobility, we have a wide range of mobility scooters available to buy and can provide you with reliable advice on which will best suit your needs. If you’re not 100% sure, we also hire them out, so you can take one or two for a trial run before you make a decision.
How do I check eligibility for the Medical Aids Subsidy Scheme?
The Medical Aids Subsidy Scheme – aka MASS – makes funding available to eligible Queensland residents with permanent and stabilized condition or disability. The funding can be used to subsidise the permanent loan of medical aids and equipment; or to purchase these outright where you contribute more than 50% of the cost. To be eligible for funding, you’ll need to hold a pensioner concession card, health care card or senior’s card; and meet the clinical criteria for the aid or equipment you’re after. A MASS approved clinician will need to assess your condition, help you complete the application form and submit to MASS for approval. For more information about the scheme – and to access the relevant contact details – check out the Queensland Government Subsidies webpage.
