where to mail form cms-1490s
To submit the Medicare CMS-849 form for reimbursement on a lift chair, you should send it to your local Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC). The specific address can vary based on your location, so it's best to check the Medicare website or contact your MAC directly for the correct address. Make sure to include all required documentation to ensure a smooth processing of your claim.
One can find information regarding CMS Medicare on the Medicare website the government currently has available. Another place to find information regarding CMS Medicare is in pamphlets available at local pharmacies.
Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)
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.
