Will Medicare Pay For A Hospital Bed?

Medicare Part B covers hospital beds for home use, as it’s considered durable medical equipment.

To qualify for coverage the hospital bed must be medically necessary, prescribed by your doctor, and purchased directly from a durable medical equipment supplier enrolled in Medicare.

It’s important to note that Medicare will cover 80% of the Medicare approved amount if you meet the necessary requirements.

After paying your Medicare Part B deductible, you'll be responsible for the remaining 20% coinsurance payment.

Having a supplementary Medigap policy can assist with reducing your out-of-pocket expenses.

To ensure you get the most suitable coverage, it's recommended to consult with a licensed agent who can provide further assistance.
