If you’ve ever needed to check whether a piece of equipment or a home modification is covered under the Assistive Technology and Home Modifications (AT-HM) scheme, you’ll know the approved item list isn’t always easy to search.
We’ve built a free tool to make that easier.
The AT-HM List Checker lets you search the full approved item list in plain English.
Type what you’re looking for — “shower chair”, “grab rail”, “hospital bed” — and the tool will tell you instantly whether it’s on the list, along with the official item name and category.
Who is the AT-HM List Checker for?
The tool is useful for anyone involved in home care planning:
- Care managers and coordinators checking what a client’s funding will cover before making a referral
- Clients and families wanting to understand what might be available to them
- Therapists looking up items quickly during or between visits
A few things to know about the AT-HM List Checker
The tool works from the current approved item list and matches plain-English search terms to official item names (including common abbreviations and alternative names). It runs entirely in your browser, so there’s nothing to download or log in to.
It’s a quick reference, not clinical advice. If you’re unsure whether a specific item is right for a client, or how to access funding, an occupational therapy assessment is the best next step. Our team is happy to help.
