Durable Medical Equipment

Fees/Payment

Does Medicaid pay for all items recommended by my doctor?

Not necessarily. In general, Medicaid will only pay for equipment that meets the general definition of DME and that the department considers to be medically necessary. Although the department has a list of DME for which it routinely pays, additional items may be approved for coverage based on individual consideration. Your medical equipment supplier can assist you in requesting items that are not on this list.
