Will medicare cover the cost of a installation of a 'hitch to a car to support a lift?

Answer 1

Medicare typically does not cover the cost of installing a hitch on a car to support a lift, as this expense is generally considered a home modification or vehicle modification rather than a medical necessity. Medicare primarily covers medical services, treatments, and equipment deemed necessary for health care. However, if the lift itself is prescribed for medical reasons and meets certain criteria, it may be covered under Medicare. It’s best to consult with Medicare or a healthcare provider for specific coverage questions.
