Will Medicare pay for a walk-in tub?
Straight answers for Sanford, FL homeowners asking about walk-in tubs and tub-to-shower conversions.
You are in Sanford, you are on Medicare, and you want a safer way to bathe. Maybe a walk-in tub. Maybe the old tub turned into a shower. Then you ask around and every person tells you something different. That mix of answers is frustrating, and you are not the only one who has felt it.
There is no single answer for everyone, and that is why you keep hearing different ones. Medicare and other plans each have their own rules, and those rules can treat a walk-in tub and a walk-in shower differently. A neighbor, a salesperson and a website may all be describing their own plan, not yours.
The price of a walk-in tub depends on your bathroom and your choices. It depends on the size and layout of the space, and whether you want a tub or a shower. It also depends on the features you pick, like a seat, grab bars, water jets, heated air or a quick drain. The work stays on the tub or shower area. The quote covers the product and the installation.
