While the intention of the law is clear, its success will depend on the quality of its effective implementation. The main challenge for the authorities will be to ensure that the conditions of access to prescription and equipment are fluid and equitable throughout the territory. This involves anticipating the influx of requests to prevent waiting times for appointments with MPR doctors and delivery times for wheelchairs from becoming a new insurmountable obstacle.
It will also be necessary to establish a rigorous pricing framework to prevent an explosion in the prices of reimbursed wheelchairs. Price transparency and market regulation will be key elements to ensure that full reimbursement truly benefits users and not an inflation of margins. The implementation of the reform is not limited to its enactment; it requires constant monitoring and an ability to adapt to practical challenges that are sure to arise.
