Insurance, including Medicare, may cover part of a lift chair—but not the whole thing. And the process to qualify is often slow, restrictive, and confusing. If you or a loved one needs help standing or sitting safely, waiting on insurance isn’t always the best option.
Let’s walk through what insurance actually covers—and why many people choose to buy directly from Med Mart instead.
What Insurance Actually Covers
Lift chairs are considered durable medical equipment (DME), but most insurance plans (including Medicare) only cover the lift mechanism, not the chair itself.
That means:
-
You’ll need a prescription from your doctor
-
You must meet strict medical requirements
-
The chair must be approved as “medically necessary”
-
You’ll still pay for the chair portion out of pocket
Even if approved, you’ll likely wait weeks for processing and may have fewer options to choose from.
Why Buying Direct Makes More Sense
If your goal is safety, independence, and comfort—you may not want to wait. Here’s why thousands of families choose Med Mart over going through insurance:
