Quantum® power wheelchairs must be serviced by an authorized Quantum provider. Our providers are trained to perform diagnostic testing and repairs. Give your provider a call and schedule an appointment if you need service for your power wheelchair. We do not recommend consumers perform their own wheelchair repairs. This is for safety reasons. If you are unsure who your provider is, contact our Consumer Call Center. Our team of representatives is available Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., to assist you. Call 1-833-QiLevel (745-3835) or email at info@pridemobility.com.

Your Quantum motorized wheelchair is considered Durable Medical Equipment (DME), if it is found to be medically necessary by Medicare and a physician. If you are a Medicare Part B beneficiary and Medicare Part B covered the cost of your electric wheelchair, Medicare Part B may also cover power wheelchair repairs. You can visit medicare.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227) for further details.

If you have private insurance, you can contact your insurer to find out if they cover electric wheelchair repairs. Call the number listed on your insurance card and speak to a representative.
