[Penelope]

DME that Medicare covers includes, but isn't limited to:

• Blood sugar meters
• Blood sugar test strips
• Canes
• Commode chairs
• Continuous passive motion devices
• Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) devices
• Crutches
• Hospital beds
• Home infusion services
• Infusion pumps & supplies
• Lancet devices & lancets
• Nebulizers & nebulizer medications
• Oxygen equipment & accessories
• Patient lifts
• Pressure-reducing support surfaces
• Suction pumps
• Traction equipment
• Walkers
• Wheelchairs & scooters

I have yet to find Medicare Advantage plans that covers 20% if the cost.

None of these plans should be allowed to have Medicare in their name.

I don't understand this statement.

There are some DME on a Med advantage plan that reverts to part B and the first 2 on your list are paid at 100%. That is all Advantage plans.

Clarify what you mean? Some DME you may have to pay 20% of a Medicare approved amount and some on your list you don't pay a damn dime for.

 

[debbiedowner]

BTW if you don't want a med advantage it's simple, don't get one.

Medical scripts plan also have a copay on scripts. Name on that doesn't.

 

[Penelope]

Medical Advantage plan are private plans and they look to get more expensive. They take money out of original medicare.

"Advantage plans" have nothing to do with Medicare.

It’s Time to End the Medicare Advantage Scam

It is long past time for Congress to give consumers better information about their health care options.

I work for a major insurance company. I offer quite a few products. Now, read the link and pay particular attention to Medicare Advantage plans must cover everything original Medicare Part A and B covers. There may or not be a co pay for some DME but not all.
