Funding Department
Our mission is to help people with disabilities achieve their potential in educational, vocational and personal pursuits. With that in mind, PRC established its funding department in 1987. The funding staff has several years of experience assisting people in obtaining the funding needed to purchase, rent or repair their speech generating devices.

Our funding staff is knowledgeable on state requirements for Medicaid and Medicare. In addition, we can submit your request for purchase of PRC equipment to private insurance.

Funding Options
PRC is interested in assisting not only client's eligible for Medicaid, Medicare and/or Private Insurance, but also those denied or not eligible for those sources. Families and advocates often ask if we are aware of other sources or avenues they can try to obtain funding for their client or family member. We have seen it all! In the past, we have received purchases resulting from local raffles, bake sales, church drives and radio spots. We have also processed many purchases from agencies such as Easter Seals, Bureau of Vocational Rehabilitation, and Rotary Clubs. Please visit Disability Resources for a complete listing.

The Funding Process
PRC's goal is to assist you in obtaining funding with the quickest possible turnaround time. To assist you, we have compiled listings of required documentation depending on the client's state of residence and funding source.

Please select a Funding Source: Medicare - Medicaid - Insurance

Advocacy and Appeals
Unfortunately, not every funding request results in a positive outcome. Many times, however, decisions can be overturned through following the appeal process outlined by the funding source.

For information on your rights under various programs, aid from protection and advocacy organizations, and appeal support visit the Disability Resources website.

We Are Here to Help
The funding process can be a challenge! To aid you through the jargon and process, PRC has developed a glossary for some of the most frequently used funding terms, answers to some of the most frequently asked questions, and commonly requested templates and resource materials.
