Frequently Asked Questions
How do I receive my equipment?
There are two ways to receive your equipment. TAP staff can order the
equipment for you and have it shipped directly to your home, or you will
receive a voucher(s) in the mail and you are responsible for obtaining
your equipment from a TAP approved vendor.
Who owns the equipment after I receive it?
You do! The equipment received from TAP is yours to keep. However, you
are fully responsible for any service or repairs beyond those covered
by the manufacturer's warranty and the Kansas Assistive Device "Lemon
Law".
How often can I receive equipment from TAP?
You can apply for new equipment every four years. However, you may reapply
at any time if your disability/impairment changes and different equipment
is necessary. A statement from your certifying authority is required with
your re-application.
