Medicare doesn't cover walk-in bathtub equipment and installation prices in North Carolina, since they are house alterations, not durable medical equipment. Durable medical equipment doesn't include physical changes to a house, just medical gear and supplies that are used to help a patient in and out of bed or a seat, or make use of a shower or bathtub simpler and safer. Consumer Affairs indicates that you may want to contact Medicare to see if (for freedom safety reasons) a walk in bathtub is justified to determine whether the equipment may be partly compensated. More often than not, they will not cover it. However, if you're qualified for Medicaid, the system in your state may give you some financial assistance for a walk-in bathtub. You may qualify for a House and Community Based Service (HCBS) waiver to play for certain specialized medical equipment and accessibility adjustments. If you are a recipient of Medicare and Medicaid, it's also advisable to think about the Dual-Eligible Special Needs Strategy. This strategy is a portion of the Medicare Advantage plan for dual eligibles. Medicaid offers a complete listing of waivers related to the elderly that we suggest that you review.

You can re-sell find or used walk in bathtubs being sold online. Nonetheless, a lot of people generally desire to ensure they are purchasing a walk-in bath that personally meets with their needs for the long-term. They're much less likely to take a huge risk by paying the removal of their present bathtub and all the costs associated with transport without a little more investment and assurance in quality along with the status of their purchase. There's not actually a huge market for plumbing fixtures that are used. Finally, should you believe you could try to resell your walk in bathtub, the following buyer might want to be aware of if the lifetime guarantee is extended to other owners too or if they are going to have to cover the costs related to a door seal or alternative component damages that may occur with use.
