Free Service for a Lifetime

In a major break with the rehab industry, Partners in Medicine now offers free, unlimited service for the lifetime of a client’s device. During the 5-year life span for each of our upper limb mobility devices we will quickly repair or replace parts at no charge to the client or their insurer. We have a three-part service plan depending on type of device or repair issue:

  1. Use our remote internet communication system to immediately diagnose and repair the device.
  2. Ship a loaner device to the client’s home along with a prepaid shipping label to send their unit to our US service center for repair.
  3. Fly a field representative to the client’s home to make the repair.

By providing this service for free we can avoid the delay in getting funding approval for the repair and can get the client up and running very quickly. Clients can contact us anytime – we work like our clients live – 24/7!

Free Family Advocacy Program

We know that the process for getting an assistive device can be confusing, frustrating, and difficult to navigate. We’ve created a dedicated Family Advocate that is there to help you every step of the process, particularly when it comes to appealing a claim to your insurance company.

 “Lauren’s role as Family Advocate was critical for Jeff to be approved for the 0540 Powered Arm Support.  Her communication skills (verbal and written!) are exemplary.  She guided us through the whole process and gave us valuable advice…She provided good talking points and added pertinent articles to include in the packet for insurance…Her follow up is impressive.  We are so grateful to her and for her!”
