Unfortunately, Medicare never covers bathroom safety equipment like shower chairs, transfer benches or raised toilet seats. They don't consider these to be "medically necessary devices," even though your doctor, physical therapist or occupational therapist may say they're required safety devices. Sometimes Medicare Advantage Plans can have spending accounts that help you pay for this equipment and it's always worth looking over your benefits to check. Sometimes Medicare will cover a bedside commode under certain circumstances.
Since Medicare doesn't pay for these important safety devices, we take every effort to make sure these items are readily available and affordable. Stop by today to see what we have in stock!
