HISA GRANT ALLOWENCES have increased and will cover a portion of the purchase price and installation cost for MyControl Bathing System

Congress has approved an increased the VA’s Home Improvement and structural Alteration Grant programs (HISA). The increase was brought about as a result of the Caregiver and Veterans Omnibus Health Services Act of 2010.

HISA programs provide grants to veterans who require home adaptations to provide access to in-home medical care. A HISA is available to service connected and non-service connected veterans who have a qualified disability or disabilities. The grant money covers costs to perform home modifications such as widening doors to accommodate mobility aids like wheel chairs and a portion of the purchase price and installation costs for MyControl Bathing System as it relates to descriptions defined within the grant terms. A service-connected disabled veteran can be approved and receive a HISA grant as well as other VA home adaptation grants at the same time.

The HISA approved bill increases the maximum amount of a grant for a service-connected veteran up to $6,800. A non-service connected veteran’s allowance has been raised to $2,000. Given the grant increases, Veterans with service-connected injuries and/or disabilities should be compensated for the purchase of a basic MyControl Bathing System and a large portion of the purchase price for the MyControl Signature Series Bathing System; along with installation and various associated modification costs.

ABT’s partnerships program can direct you to sources that can assist with completion of the steps to fill successfully file for a HISA grant as well as ABT certified installers of MyControl Bathing System.

  2. Provide a photograph of your bathroom “before” any remodeling or safety modifications have been made
  3. Acquire three quotes for labor and materials from certified plumbers/contractors. ABT can assist you with locating plumbers/contractors
  4. Turn your prescription, photograph, three quotes and form VA FORM 10-01033 into the Prosthetics and Sensory Aid Services Department at your local VA hospital.
