As a result of the review, ADP is reducing the Approved Prices for these mobility devices to ensure value for money for ADP and fairness for ADP clients. ADP will implement the changes effective June 1, 2015. Any application where the patient delivery date is on or after June 1, 2015 will be subject to the new reduced prices. ADP has not made any changes to the eligibility criteria for mobility devices (see Part 3 of the Mobility Devices Policy and Administration Manual). The updated Product Manual has been posted on the ADP website at http://www.health.gov.on.ca/en/pro/ programs/adp/docs/manual_mobility.pdf/ .
