FAQs

Q: What's the difference between the 17-inch and 19-inch models?

A: The 17-inch seat measures 18 inches wide when open, while the 19-inch seat spans 23 inches. Both fold to the same 8-inch width and support 250 lbs. Choose based on patient hip width for comfortable seating.

Q: Can the footrests be removed completely?

A: Yes, the swing-away footrests detach entirely by releasing the mounting hardware. This feature assists with lateral transfers and allows closer approach to tables or desks.

Q: Is this wheelchair self-propelled or attendant-propelled?

A: This is an attendant-propelled transport chair with 8-inch casters on all four positions. It lacks the large rear wheels needed for self-propulsion by the occupant.

Q: Does insurance cover this wheelchair under HCPCS code E1038?

A: Many insurance plans and Medicare recognize E1038 for transport wheelchairs. Contact your provider with this HCPCS code to verify coverage requirements and prior authorization needs.

Q: How do I clean the upholstery between patients in a clinical setting?

A: Wipe black nylon surfaces with EPA-registered disinfectant wipes or spray. Allow 30-second contact time per product label. The fabric resists moisture and dries quickly for rapid room turnover.
