Wheelchair cross-compatibility drives efficiency


– What is cross compatibility?

Invacare recognises that efficiency is a key factor when dealing with an aging population and a growing need for mobility. As medical reimbursements come under increasing pressure, Invacare strives to offer dealers a comprehensive range of products. From the basic Low Active wheelchair models to high-end Power wheelchairs, this wide range of products share a lot of common parts and accessories.

This enables dealers to not only best serve their wide spectrum of customers, but allows greater operational cost efficiencies and increases customer convenience.


– Where does the efficiency come from?Using shared components and options significantly reduces the complexity of handling, prescribing and modifying products.

For Invacare dealers, business is made more efficient in terms of:

• Commonality across options ● Spare parts handling• Administration ● Servicing products• Staff training ● Matching products to user

needs• Purchasing, ‘one stop shop’ system ● Ecology: durable products
