Managed Rehabilitation Equipment Services

There are three Managed Rehabilitation Equipment Services (MRES) equipment lists that form the Managed Rehabilitation Equipment Services (MRES): Service items and prices spreadsheet. The equipment lists hold the service item codes for each of the equipment items, and the new and refurbished costs for these items.
