What does “accepts Medicare assignment” mean?
A supplier that accepts assignment agrees to take the Medicare-approved amount as full payment for items Medicare covers. After the Part B deductible you usually pay 20% of that amount. A supplier enrolled in Medicare that does not accept assignment can charge you more than the approved amount, so ask before you buy.
Does Medicare pay for medical equipment?
Medicare Part B covers durable medical equipment (such as walkers, wheelchairs, hospital beds, oxygen equipment and blood sugar monitors) when your doctor or other provider orders it for use at home and the supplier is enrolled in Medicare. Medicare Advantage plans may require you to use their own network of suppliers. Check with your plan.
