Question 1

1) Will Medicare cover the cost of equipment and installation in Connecticut?

Medicare does not cover walk-in tub gear and installation prices in Connecticut, for the reason that they are house adjustments, not durable medical equipment. Durable medical equipment does not contain physical changes to a house, just medical equipment and materials which are accustomed to help a patient in and out of a chair or bed, or make use of a shower or bathtub simpler and safer. Consumer Affairs indicates that you might wish to contact Medicare to see if (for mobility security reasons) a walk in tub is justified to ascertain if the gear can be somewhat compensated. More often than not, it won't be covered by them. However, if you are eligible for Medicaid, the system in your state may offer you some financial assistance for a walk-in bathtub. You may qualify for a Home and Community Based Service (HCBS) waiver to play for specific specialized medical equipment and availability adjustments. In the event you are a recipient of Medicaid and Medicare, you should also consider the Double-Eligible Special Needs Strategy. This strategy is part of the Medicare Advantage plan for dual eligibles. The Special Needs Plan (SNP) or Medicaid may contemplate your qualification when you can prove that a walk in bath is medically necessary, not merely a convenience, or as a prevention in the instance of a fall, along with a written prescription that describes the need for a person to stay dwelling in their home. Medicaid offers an entire list of waivers related to the elderly that we suggest that you review.

If the member is bed- room or confined - confined some DMEs are considered medically necessary, instead of a public toilet. DMEs are considered medically necessary if it is vital for daily tasks and is primarily medical in nature.

Yes. A walk in tub is not generally shorter than an average bath tub, which includes about 2 1/2 feet of water on average. Some makers say if a typical shower is 7 minutes that you simply use the same quantity of water as a regular shower and you also use 7 gallons of water a minute. Most of the walk-in baths available on the market have a 40-80 gallon capacity. The truth is, many manufacturers recommend that you've got a hot water tank that admits at least 50 gallons, though some baths will operate efficiently if you fill them with 40-60 gallons.

Mainly you're paying for a list of safety features which are not accessible on a regular bath. These safety features are built into walk-in bathtubs for persons with limited mobility to lower the possibility of falling down. A crucial aspect of walk in tubs is that there's a low step threshold to permit a user to readily enter into the tub unconcerned about the normal high wall of a regular tub. The walk in tubs also normally contain jet therapy, a cleaning function, and improved drain options. Moreover, among the reasons why the price varies among the walk in baths is that the tubs are custom made depending on someone 's needs rather than factory replicated, so you can discover a bath that's specially made for somebody who desires wheelchair accessibility, a bath that fits a bigger person, or a soaker tub with jets.

Question 8

Yes. Walk-in tubs can be personalized to your taste. Check with the makers about Connecticut options. Some offer colours which are uniform with most bathrooms.

Question 11

11) Is there any additional structural support needed before installation?

Many walk in tubs are mounted to a stainless steel welded support frame with leveling feet that is included with your purchased bath. The floor in the bathroom has to have a structural support strength that exceeds the weight of the bathtub plus the weight of the water. Our Bridgeport installer will check to determine if the floor is level and otherwise if it is not, then they will use the leveling legs to adjust the level of the bath. Of course, the prior tub will need to be eliminated. Also, the if replacing, the wall or tile in the area will need to be removed.

Question 12

Yes. There are walkin bathtub installments that offer you a big standing area for standup showers. You can shower standing up or sitting down. Ensure you get the correct dimensions for the walk-in bath so you don't feel cramped during a stand up shower. Also, in case you wish to keep your standing shower, because if your faucet is not right against a wall, it is much harder to tap into your existing shower, another thing to keep in mind is always to ask about the faucet location.
