If you have private health insurance for the rest of your life do you have to take Medicare Part B?
Asolutely no. Part B is not required. ANSWER If your "lifetime insurer" has no Part B requirements and has, in addition, a generous schedule of coverage, then you are in good shape without considering Part B, and as you have been informed, Part B is not required.On the other hand, although it is true that to receive some Medicare benefits, one does not have to enroll in Part B, it is also true that (1) some private insurers will not issue a policy to a Medicare beneficiary who is not enrolled in Part B and (2) some procedures -- office visits, for example -- that are covered by Part B are not covered by the basic Medicare program. An implication of that second condition is that a private policy and Medicare Part B may have different terms and schedules, and one ought to check the coverage of both policies.

What is the form for filing medicare claim for lift chair?
Medicare will not cover the whole cost of a lift chair, but will cover 80% of the lift mechanism, usually around $280. Since these products are usually sold "on assignment" you'll have to pay the full price up-front and then file for your reimbursement from Medicare. Your supplier should be able to provide you with form CMS-849 - the Certificate of Medical Necessity for Seat Lift Mechanisms or it can be downloaded from the CMS website. I have added 2 related links that will be helpful.
