Best Answer

For the average person, it is not necessary to obtain a doctor's prescription when buying an orthopedic mattress. There are a few exceptions, however - for medically necessary purchases covered by insurance, a prescription, and probably pre-authorization, will be required. There are also certain specialty types of orthopedic mattress, such as hospital type beds or hypoallergenic models, which may need a prescription.
