Do I need a letter of support?
At Assistive Tech we do require that an allied health professional such as your Occupational Therapist or Speech Pathologist provides what we call a "Letter of Support." This letter simply confirms that in your health professional's opinion that assistive technology would be of benefit to you.
The letter of support does not need to specify the item, model or value - our expert advisers will assist you to select a product that both meets your needs and fits within the appropriate guidelines issued to us by NDIA.
Other Questions
Can my support coordinator help with my order?
We're happy to work with support coordinators and other support workers to prepare all of the relevant paperwork and complete the device selection processes.
Where the participant is capable of expressing their opinion we do prefer to have at least a short conversation with them to confirm their order and they understand the product that is being ordered for them.
Do I need to print and sign anything?
Our service agreements are completely electronic - there is no need to print or scan anything. Just sign electronically from your phone, tablet or computer. For participants that are unable to sign we can carry out a recorded/verbal consent process over the phone.
How long do I have to wait once my order is placed?
We carry large stock holdings of most products to avoid any delays in shipping. Other than items that are "special ordered" your order will ship on the same business day your payment is received.
This all seems too confusing - can I talk to someone?
If you have questions, or simply would prefer for us to complete the process for you just give our friendly team a call on 1300 088 222 or message us right here on the website and we'll be able to take you through the process step by step. Our team are online Monday to Friday 9am-5pm (Sydney Time).
