August 2025: The Complexities of Wheelchair Repair

August 20, 2025 by Laurie Watanabe

All seating and wheeled mobility stakeholders agree that repairing Complex Rehab Technology (CRT) wheelchairs often takes far too long. But many stakeholders — consumers, caregivers, clinicians, providers, manufacturers, funding sources, policy makers — disagree on what’s at the root of the problem … making it challenging to agree on a way forward.

In this digital edition, Mobility Management starts a deep dive into the need for repair reform.

• Do prior authorization requirements work the way they should, or are they just preventing access to needed repairs?
• What is the mainstream media saying about right-to-repair legislation?
• How does funding impact providers’ abilities to promptly perform repairs?

Also: Our 2025 RESNA conference event coverage from RehabWeek in Chicago.
