Mobility Scooter Coverage by Insurance

If you are using Medicare to pay for a mobility scooter, we recommend confirming that the provider you have chosen accepts Medicare. Medicare may cover part of the cost of an electric scooter if it’s medically necessary and your physician issues a prescription. Medicare may only reimburse for an electric scooter that is used in the home. Learn more about whether Medicare will pay for an electric scooter.

If you have private insurance, you can contact your insurer to find out if they cover motorized scooters. Insurance may cover a mobility scooter if it’s medically necessary and your doctor issues a prescription. Your insurance card will have a phone number you can dial to speak to a representative.

Additional Financing Options for Your Mobility Scooter

Many Pride providers offer financing options as an alternative if your insurance doesn’t cover mobility scooters. Many Pride providers participate with CareCredit, a credit card that allows you to work with your budget to pay for medical equipment and services. There are also special promotional financing options available upon credit approval. Contact your provider today to find out how you can fill out an application or visit carecredit.com for more information.
