Standard Power Chairs are the most common power chair products covered by Medicare, assuming you meet the weight requirements (up to 300 pounds). Beyond that weight limit, there are other heavy duty or bariatric options.

Depends on your condition. Power wheelchairs have very strict guidelines that have to be met before any coverage is allowed. Make sure you go to your doctor before you try to purchase one from places like Hoveround or Scooter Stores, or what have you, or you'll never get it covered.
