Frequently Asked Questions


1) Will Medicare cover the cost of equipment and installation in North Dakota?

Medicare will not cover walk in bathtub gear and installation costs in North Dakota, for the reason that they are home modifications, not durable medical equipment. Durable medical equipment will not include physical changes to a home, simply medical gear and materials that are accustomed to help a patient in and out of a seat or bed, or make use of a shower or bath easier and safer. Consumer Affairs implies that you may wish to contact Medicare to see if (for freedom security reasons) a walk-in bath is justified to determine if the gear may be partially compensated. More often than not, it won't be covered by them. However, if you are eligible for Medicaid, your state's system may provide you with some financial assistance for a walk in tub. You may qualify for a Home and Community Based Service (HCBS) waiver to play for particular specialized medical equipment and accessibility modifications. In the event you are a receiver of Medicaid and Medicare, it's also wise to think about the Dual-Eligible Specific Needs Strategy. This strategy is part of the Medicare Advantage plan for dual eligibles.

Medicaid provides an entire list of waivers relevant to the elderly that we recommend that you review.

Yes. There are walkin tub installations that offer you a big standing place for standup showers. You can shower sitting down or standing up. Ensure you get the correct dimensions for the walk in bathtub so that you do not feel cramped during a stand up shower.

DMEs are considered medically necessary if it's needed for day-to-day tasks and is primarily medical in nature. Since bathing considered crucial and is considered a daily living activity, Aetna lists bathroom items that are unable to transfer to and from a bathtub or considered necessary if a member is not able to bathe or shower without being seated.

6) Will a tub like this look bad for my homeowner’s insurance in North Dakota?

Check with your Minot homeowner's insurance to make sure it'll cover you against this type of damage. You may need a house adjustment license from the Minot, ND building department to set up a tub, especially if walls need to be removed to coordinate with your bathroom plans. Most of all, you did not get one AND somehow and in case you needed a license your home suffers from damage from the installed walk-in tub, your losses may not be covered by your homeowner's insurance. If you plan on ever selling your Minot residence, there are plenty of buyer beware messages out there which will direct potential buyers from your home since it does influence homeowner's insurance, if there have been any advancements without permits. Buyers see the licenses and their homeowners insurance as protections on their investments in homes.

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

Largely you are paying for a list of safety features that are unavailable on a regular bath. These safety features are built into walk-in bathtubs for individuals with limited mobility to decrease the possibility of falling down. An important feature of walk-in tubs is that there's a low step threshold to permit a user to readily enter into the bathtub unconcerned about the typical high wall of a regular bathtub. The walk-in bathtubs also usually contain jet therapy, a cleaning function, and improved drain alternatives. Furthermore, among the reasons why the price varies among the walk in tubs is that the tubs are custom-made depending on an individual 's needs rather than factory reproduced, so you can find a bath that is specially made for someone who needs wheelchair access, a tub that fits a bigger person, or a soaker tub with jets.

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

Appropriate installation and initial testing should provide you with a leakproof experience, nevertheless there are events that customers report where they experienced escapes. 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. Ask if this feature is contained. We highly recommend that you simply get a lifetime guarantee, because it covers the seal and the door in the case of a leak. Many people replace the door seal on a walk-in tub themselves. In addition, it's vital that you take good attention of the walk in bath door when the tub is not in use to prevent premature failure of the seal. Wiping down the door seal and door jamb after every use can keep the integrity of the water seal. Follow the care and maintenance instructions. Also, any small set of soil or debris on the door seal or where the seal comes in contact with the door jamb can result in a minor escape through the door seal, so always wipe down the door seal.
