They are Bruce Bayes, president of Custom Mobility; John Goetz, consultant to Permobil; Larry Jackson, president of Sunrise Medical; Johnny Miller, president of Miller’s; Kyle Walker, regional vice president of Reliable Medical Supply; and Brett Zaer, president of Superior Mobility. “We’re very thankful to the strong and committed group of industry leaders who give their time, expertise and resources to NCART and our mission to ensure that people with disabilities can get the specialized equipment and supporting services they depend on,” the organization stated. Directors serve two-year terms with staggered elections…NCART is asking complex rehab providers to send them pricing data for seat elevation systems by Aug. 3. The organization will provide the data to CMS to help determine adequate reimbursement amounts. Providers who are interested in sharing pricing data should contact Mickae Lee at mlee@ncart.us.
