Where can I get a used wheelchair for a fraction of the cost online?

You can probably get the best deal off of ebay. First I would recommend checking Walmart.com and Amazon.com and seeing how much a full priced wheelchair costs. Both of those stores will offer them at very competitive prices. Other sites to check out are: www.medmarketplace.com and www.used-wheelchairs-usa.com There is an online site called The Wheelchair Site and it sells used wheelchairs. If you have Medicaid or Medicare and the wheelchair is medically necessary, you could request a prescription from your medical doctor. With a perscription for a wheel chair your medicare or medicaid insurance should pay for it.


What are the requirements of a facility providing a wheelchair for a person on medicaid.?

This will vary somewhat from State to State. However, in general, a group care facility is responsible for providing all the medical services and items that the Medicaid resident requires.
