Will Medicare cover orthopedic tempur pedic mattresses?
No not a mattress for a normal bed whether tempur-pedic or otherwise. They will cover 80% of a hospital bed and Tempur-Pedic does make a mattress for this style of bed. With a very specific prescription Medicare may cover 20% of that mattress but you have to pay for it up front and Medicare MAY reimburse you or the provider (like a home health store) the 20%. I just spent 3 days researching this very subject and Medicare will not cover the cost of a "normal" mattress even with a doctor's prescription. By this I mean I have a prescription in my hand that states I need to have a posturpedic firm - extra firm mattress or a Tempur-pedic or other memory foam type mattress, after contacting three different home health companies (they provide hospital beds, replacement hospital bed mattresses, lifts etc.) that all told me they have never heard of Medicare paying for a normal mattress so I decided to contact Medicare directly. I talked to three different people and all of them said the same thing. A hospital bed would be covered if my doctor prescribes one, however no normal mattress is covered for any reason. There are some mattresses and Mattress covers provided for patients with ulcers of the skin etc. but they have to be waterproof and other restrictions apply. For a closer inspection of your own look under Pressure Reducing Support Surfaces - *Group 1 Group 2 and Group 3 At http://www.medicare.gov and you will have to put in your own state and narrow it down from there. *Group 1 is as close as your going to get to a mattress and Medicare will only pay for waterproof mattresses under this group.
