The Tek RMD is now covered by Medicare, commercial insurance, and the US Veterans Administration, marking a significant advancement in mobility solutions.
The device enables users to stand and move at eye level, facilitating participation in everyday activities and improving both physical and mental health.
Standing mobility is known for its health benefits such as improved circulation and digestive functions, as well as reduced muscle atrophy and enhanced bone density.
These are particularly important for those who spend prolonged periods seated. Mentally, the act of standing can empower individuals, reducing the psychological and emotional strain associated with wheelchair use.

By GlobalDataThe ability to stand at eye level allows individuals to perform activities of daily living (ADLs) with greater ease. The Tek RMD supports users in various tasks, from household chores to professional engagements, offering them newfound independence.
This is especially meaningful for veterans and those with service-related disabilities, providing them with a level of freedom.
With the HCPCS code now in place, the Tek RMD is more accessible to individuals nationwide, with financial barriers reduced.
