US Medicare Coverage
If you qualify, Uplift Seat Assist may be covered under US
Medicare Code E0629.
To qualify, you must
have Medicare Part B coverage, and meet certain medical coverage
criteria. Medicare will reimburse 80% of about $330 for Uplift
Seat Assist or Power Seat. (Amounts vary by state).

your Home Medical Equipment Supplier for for help with Medicare

Note:
You will receive approximately the same Medicare reimbursement
in purchasing a lift chair as you would in purchasing a Seat

is eligible for coverage).
