Coverage by Payer Program

Medicare Part B may cover durable medical equipment (DME) and home health services for qualifying beneficiaries. Coverage for in-bed shower systems depends on medical necessity documentation.

Medicare Part B — DME Coverage

The Bed Shower Wibby™ may qualify as Durable Medical Equipment (DME) under Medicare Part B for homebound patients with documented medical necessity. Coverage requires a physician's order and assignment to a Medicare-enrolled DME supplier. Typical patient cost-share: 20% after the Part B deductible.

Medicare Part A — Skilled Nursing Facility

For patients in Medicare-certified SNFs, in-bed showering may be covered as part of the daily skilled nursing rate under Part A. The facility bears the cost of hygiene equipment and services during the covered stay.

Medicare Advantage (Part C)

Many Medicare Advantage plans offer supplemental benefits beyond Original Medicare, including personal care and hygiene services. Coverage varies significantly by plan and carrier. Contact your plan's member services to verify in-bed shower coverage.

How to Get Coverage

1. Obtain a physician's written order documenting medical necessity. 2. Confirm your DME supplier is Medicare-enrolled. 3. Submit a prior authorization request if required by your plan. 4. Contact Bed Shower™ at (877) 763-7291 for assistance with documentation.

HSA & FSA Eligible

Bed Shower™ systems qualify as medical expenses under IRS guidelines. Use your Health Savings Account or Flexible Spending Account to purchase — no insurance approval required.
