Will Medicare pay for a lift chair?
Medicare Part B does provide coverage for the lifting mechanism component within the chair, as it’s considered durable medical equipment. However, the cost of the chair itself isn’t covered.
To qualify for coverage the lift chair must be medically necessary, prescribed by your doctor, and purchased directly from a durable medical equipment supplier enrolled in Medicare.
It’s also important to note that some Medicare Advantage plans might include more comprehensive coverage for lift chairs. These plans are offered by private insurance companies approved by Medicare.
To ensure you get the most suitable coverage, it's recommended to consult with a licensed agent who can provide further assistance.
