Program
ALS Equipment Loan Program
As the disease progresses, individuals will experience a decline in functioning as it relates to mobility and speech. These challenges can impact independence and quality of life. In some situations, specific medical and communication devices are required but not covered by private insurance, Medicaid or Medicare. The Equipment Loaner Program provides such equipment to persons with ALS at no cost. This program works diligently to obtain through grant funding or private donations such items that can ensure increased independence. The Association in partnership with community providers collaborate on the maintenance and storage of all equipment.
