You may be aware that the Continence Aids Assistance Scheme ("CAAS") will become the Continence Aids Payment Scheme ("CAPS") from 1 July 2010.
What does that mean for you?
CAPS will replace the CAAS and will be managed by Medicare Australia. The funds will provide a greater choice and will be paid directly into the individual user's bank account for purchasing continence products.
The team at Independence Australia Health Solutions acknowledges the recently announced changes and is committed to delivering a convenient, timely, cost effective and quality service to clients across Australia through our national branch network. We have offices, showrooms, warehouses and local Territory Managers in each state dedicated to fulfilling our customer's needs.
Independence Australia is a leading national distributor of health and wellbeing products and is already equipped to facilitate a smooth transitiion for current CAAS customers to the new CAPS. We specialise in the speedy, discreet home delivery of products at the most competitive price. Our 14 day accounts and easy payment options are designed to make purchasing your healthcare products convenient for you.
