AT-HM: start with the official list before arranging equipment or modifications

The Assistive Technology and Home Modifications list sets out the products, equipment and modifications available under the AT-HM scheme. An item appearing on the list is only part of the decision: assessed need and any conditions also matter. Official publication and file: https://www.health.gov.au/resources/publications/assistive-technology-and-home-modifications-list-at-hm-list.

The July 2026 document separates inclusions, conditional inclusions and exclusions. It also explains prescription categories. All home modifications require a prescription; assistive technology requirements depend on the item and circumstances. Read the relevant entry rather than assuming one approach applies to everything.

Keep the purchase decision traceable

A practical internal checklist can bring together the participant’s assessed need, the relevant list entry, required professional input, quote and decision. Record what remains unresolved before placing an order. This helps a second reviewer see why a proposed item was selected.

The document itself says it was updated on 17 July 2026, while the publication page is dated 20 July 2026. Keeping both dates avoids mistaking a publication date for a change in eligibility.

How Genoveva could help

Genoveva could help organise the evidence around an AT-HM request, such as the item reference, professional recommendation, quote and follow-up actions. AT-HM functionality is part of the proposed scope and should only be relied on once its supported workflows are confirmed and tested.
