Getting a Mobility Device Through Insurance

If you want to try to get a manual wheelchair, scooter or power wheelchair through insurance follow these steps:

1. Schedule an in person visit with the physician or nurse practitioner - they'll need to write a prescription and write they recommend it in their clinic notes.
2. Connect with a wheelchair provider in your area that accepts your insurance. Use the Medicare Supplier Directory to help.
3. They will help you the rest of the way by scheduling a wheelchair evaluation, collecting paperwork and getting it sent to the insurance provider for approval. Finally they will provide the chair and maintenance for the next 5 years.
