3) Will Medicare cover the cost of equipment and installation in Massachusetts?

Medicare does not cover walk-in tub equipment and installation costs in Massachusetts, because they're dwelling modifications, not durable medical equipment. Durable medical equipment does not contain physical changes to a home, only medical gear and materials which are used to help a patient in and out of a seat or bed, or make use of a shower or bath simpler and safer. Consumer Affairs suggests that you may wish to contact Medicare to see if (for mobility safety reasons) a walk in tub is justified to determine if the gear could be partially compensated. More often than not, they will not cover it. But if you're qualified for Medicaid, the program in your state may provide you with some financial assistance for a walk in bath. You may qualify for a House and Community Based Service (HCBS) waiver to play for certain specialized medical equipment and availability adjustments. If you're a recipient of Medicaid and Medicare, you should also think about the Double-Eligible Special Needs Strategy. The Special Needs Plan (SNP) or Medicaid may consider your qualifications if you can establish that a walk-in tub is medically necessary, not just a convenience, or as a prevention in the case of a fall, together with a written prescription that clarifies the requirement for a person to stay living in their house.

If the member is bed- room or confined - some DMEs are considered necessary, instead of a public toilet. DMEs are considered medically necessary if it is needed for day-to-day activities and is primarily medical in nature. Since bathing is considered a daily living activity and considered vital, bathroom items that are considered necessary if a member is unable to bathe or shower without being seated or unable to transfer to and from a bathtub are listed by Aetna.

7) Why are these tubs so much more expensive than normal tubs?

Mainly you are paying for a listing of safety features that are unavailable on a regular tub. These safety features are built into walk in bathtubs for individuals with limited mobility to reduce the chance of falling down. Model wall heights are usually 37 to 47 inches tall and contain a built in shower seat, textured flooring, grab bars, anti-scald valves, in-line heater, temperature controls, plus a water-tight door. A crucial feature of walk in tubs is that there is a low step threshold to allow a user to easily enter into the tub unconcerned regarding the typical high wall of a regular tub. The walk-in tubs also usually include jet therapy, a cleaning function, and enhanced drain alternatives. Moreover, one of the reasons why the cost varies among the walk in tubs is that the baths are custom-made depending on a person's demands rather than factory copied, so you can find a bathtub that's especially made for somebody who needs wheelchair accessibility, a tub that fits a larger person, or a soaker tub with jets.

9) 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's included with your purchased bathtub. 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 Worcester installer will check to ascertain if the floor is level and otherwise if it is not, then they are going to use the leveling legs to correct the level of the bath. Of course, the prior bath will need to be eliminated. Also, the if replacing tile or the wall in the region will need to be removed.

The setup can cost you approximately $1,500-$3,000 to be installed in Worcester. Occasionally the cost of the installation along with the unit is a better investment than paying for a caretaker.

11) How do I know these tubs will fully seal and not leak out all over the floor?

Appropriate installation and initial testing should give you a leak-proof encounter, nevertheless there are incidents where they experienced outflows that customers report. Under appropriate conditions, the weight of the water should compress the door seal making it completely leak proof. Some units comprise a second drain under the entry door to help prevent escapes if the door does leak. If this feature is contained ask. We highly advise that you just get a lifetime warranty, as it covers the seal as well as the door in the case of a leak. Replacement seals will cost you. Also, it's crucial that you take great care of the walk-in bath door when the tub isn't in use to prevent premature failure of the seal. Wiping down door jamb and the door seal after each use can keep the integrity of the water seal. Follow the care and maintenance directions.

12) How do walk in bathtubs work?

When you enter the walk in tub, by pulling on the handle toward you, you shut the door and seal it. Make sure that the handle is locked to be able to prevent any water loss. There are several types of handles depending on the version you decide to purchase. Be sure it is a handle that you could easily operate. Following that, you close the floor drain and make sure that the anti-scald device has been preset before utilizing the bathtub. Make sure to familiarize yourself with the operating instructions to gauge which speed works best for your requirements should you plan on using jets. Makers may also advocate a maximum time of use. You need to drain the water when you've finished your bath, remove the drain determined by the kind of drain or turn the overflow knob. Pull on the bathtub leave and handle the bath.
