It will probably be covered in the future, there are a lot of people and organizations trying to get it covered. I've always found a way to get mine covered. I don't know why it's not covered because it's only about a $1,500 charge, but this was a couple years ago. Try this website,

@A mySMAteam Member One tip...if you are able to get a seat elevation feature, keep in mind in most chairs that raises the seat height...even sometimes when the wheelchair provider swears it doesn't. I ran into the problem that the unit raised my seat by about an inch unless i tilted the seat recline all tge way forward. Naturally that inch makes a huge difference getting under standard hieght tables. Ironically, it is now easier to get under a pub hieght table...but have to always tell waiters and waitresses as they dont realize seat elevates.

My current chair is the Quantum Pride rear wheel drive. I actually found the Invacare to be an all around better chair...but they had a serious issue when I when it was time to order a wheelchair last go around. They were shut down due to chairs driving on their own after putting a new chip in their joysticks lol

A mySMAte...

A great question! I also need wheelchair recommendations. I have always bought OttoBock chairs, and I am quite satisfied with their quality (I currently use an OttoBock B400). I don't know if your government pays for this particular chair, but I can recommend OttoBock in general. BUT this time, I hope to buy a Meyra "ichair meylife" (when I have the money 🤡). Never had the money for a chair with seat elevation or tilt (our government doesn't pay much for chairs), I am so excitedly saving LOL.

I’m willing to do whatever you want to help
