Mobility fund: cochlear implant processor upgrade for Wawan in Jakarta
Wawan needs a cochlear implant processor upgrade that the health system won't fund; the cost is $1,050.
🇮🇩 Jakarta, DKI Jakarta, Indonesia717 views
I live with an amputation below the knee. My occupational therapist at Jakarta General Hospital has assessed me and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,050.
My current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment I could go outside without waiting for someone to push. It would change my everyday life and my ability to work from home.
We've applied to two charities already and received small contributions; this campaign covers the rest.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $1,050 goes:
• cochlear implant processor upgrade: $920
• Fitting and training sessions: $65
• Delivery and set-up: $30
• First-year servicing plan: $35
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
