First check the eligibility criteria to ensure that you are eligible. If it is clear that you do not meet the eligibility criteria you should not proceed with completing the Application Form. If you have questions about your eligibility, contact Intouch for advice on 1300 366 455* before completing the Application Form.
If you meet the eligibility criteria you can apply for CAAS by completing the Application Form. Please make sure to follow the instructions outlined on the form, or below.
Prior to 1 July 2007, eligibility for CAAS stopped at 65 years of age for most people. Past CAAS clients whose assistance stopped because they were 65 years or older are now eligible for CAAS due to the current expanded age eligibility. In these cases, CAAS applicants do not need to have Section 2 of the Application Form (Health Report) completed, however eligibility will be subject to confirmation of previous assistance under CAAS.
Information provided in your application is protected by the Freedom of Information Act 1982 and the Privacy Act 1988. Intouch is required to ensure that your personal records are kept in a secure place and are not misused. You should note, however, that in signing the CAAS Application Form you agree to have your personal details provided to another CAAS agency, any agency authorised to supply or dispatch goods under CAAS or to the Commonwealth. Intouch requires this information in order to provide you with continence products under CAAS. You are able to access your personal information on request. You can view our full privacy policy here.
Applicants for CAAS assistance are required to obtain an assessment from an appropriate health professional such as a continence nurse, general practitioner, medical specialist, community nurse, physiotherapist or occupational therapist, to support their application. The outcome of this assessment should be recorded on the CAAS Health Report - Section 2 of the CAAS Application Form.
The health professional should only complete the CAAS Health Report if he or she is in a position to make an accurate assessment of the applicant in relation to their incontinence, and the cause of this incontinence. For a list of eligible conditions refer to the CAAS guidelines or visit the CAAS page on the Department of Health and Ageing's Bladder & Bowel website.
The completed Health Report should be returned to the applicant to forward to Intouch.
If you are eligible for CAAS you can make your application to Intouch which takes only 48 hours to process. You can find our product catalogue and all application forms available for download on our forms page. For more information or to apply, please contact us.
