How Many Do I Need?

  • 10% of each equipment category per department
  • 20% for mobility-specialty facilities (rehab, etc.)
  • Units must be distributed across depts, not grouped in one area
  • Keep cert + spec sheet on file per unit

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need compliant equipment even if no patient has complained?

Yes. ADA MDE compliance is a procurement obligation, not a reactive one. State and local government entities must purchase accessible equipment regardless of whether any patient has raised an issue. Waiting for a complaint is not a defensible compliance strategy.

Exactly how many compliant units do I need?

At least 10% of each equipment category per department must be ADA-compliant. Mobility-specialty facilities (e.g., rehabilitation centers) face a 20% minimum. Compliant units must also be distributed across departments, not consolidated in one area.

Example: A clinic with 12 exam tables across 4 departments needs at least 2 compliant tables, positioned so each department has reasonable access to one.
