Power Scooters & Power Wheelchairs — Covered by Medicare

Medicare Part B covers power scooters and power wheelchairs as durable medical equipment when they’re medically necessary to get around your home — coverage depends on a face-to-face exam, medical necessity and documentation, and isn’t guaranteed. MediHarbor handles the paperwork (including prior authorization), then delivers and fits your device. We check your benefits before anything ships — MediHarbor is your Medicare DMEPOS-enrolled supplier.

What it is

Scooters are great if you can sit upright and steer; power wheelchairs give more support and tighter indoor control. We help you pick the right one, handle Medicare’s paperwork, and deliver it fitted to you.

Common questions

What will it cost me?
For eligible Medicare Part B patients, power wheelchairs and scooters are covered as durable medical equipment when medically necessary — you typically pay 20% coinsurance after your Part B deductible, and a secondary plan may cover the rest. Your exact cost depends on your plan. We verify your benefits before anything ships.
Do I need a prescription?
Yes — Medicare requires a face-to-face exam with your doctor and a written order that documents why you need a power device in the home. We help coordinate all of it for you.
Scooter or power wheelchair — which is right?
It depends on your strength, your home, and how you’ll use it. Scooters suit people who can sit upright and steer; power wheelchairs suit those who need more support and tighter indoor control. We’ll help you choose.
What about prior authorization?
Many power wheelchairs require Medicare prior authorization before delivery. We handle that submission for you so there are no surprises.
