Newer version of the vest

anonymous

New member
I was just wondering if any one upgraded to the newer smaller version of the vest. My daughter has the older version of the vest . I think it might way 50 pounds not sure, but it is heavy to lug around. I'm grateful that we have one period, because I know that there is still people out there that dosen't have a vest. Is there a way you can trade in the old vest and pay less for a newer version? If anyone has done this how much did it cost you.?

Yes, you can upgrade the 103 Hill-rom (large) to the smaller, more portable 104 Hill-rom. It will cost you $6,000 to do that. I think from what I heard that it is difficult to get the insurance company to pay for that. I looked into it for my daughter.
