Five FlexEquip Benefits & How to Refer for Fast and Cost Effective Equipment

Did you know hiring equipment from FlexEquip and utilising the bundle subscription can save a person’s NDIS plan thousands of dollars?

We need your support to ensure NDIS participants are maximising their NDIS plan funds and not spending money purchasing equipment unnecessarily.

Five FlexEquip Benefits:

1. Cost effective: NDIS bundle participants can loan as many items as clinically required including access to the One Off Specialised AT items, saving thousands of dollars.

2. Fast: We have 2,600 AT items available and are ready to deliver. We even have our own van for Sydney metro deliveries and have reliable couriers for other areas, including regional deliveries in NSW and the ACT.  

3. Clean and maintained: Our equipment is of the highest standard, it is rigorously cleaned before it is loaned out and we maintain items over the course of the loan.

4. Eco-friendly: AT purchased through NDIS plans is frequently bumped to landfill when it is no longer needed. Our loan model supports environmental sustainability.  

5. Available to everyone with an NDIS plan or over the age of 65 with a diagnosis of MND: We have expanded our eligibility criteria to include all people with AT funding in their NDIS plan regardless of diagnosis.

We urge you to consider prescribing items from FlexEquip before recommending purchase of single use AT.
