32. The purchase or replacement cost of a visual aid or of its component or supplement, where applicable, that is reimbursed by the Board to a recognized institution is the established price appearing in the Tariff for each visual aid, component or supplement in the list of visual aids appearing in that Tariff.
That price shall be established following a call for tenders pursuant to section 3.1 of the Health Insurance Act (chapter A-29).

In all cases, the Board shall reimburse to a recognized institution the purchase or replacement cost only of insured visual aids and only if such a visual aid is loaned to a person with a visual deficiency in accordance with the provisions of this Regulation by such recognized institution that establishes the need for such a loan. Similarly, the Board shall reimburse to a recognized institution the cost only of the insured repair or insured replacement of a visual aid.
