eSpecial Needs does not bill Medicare or insurance companies and therefore does not accept Medicare or Insurance as payment. We suggest you contact your carrier directly to find out eligibility requirements.
If you would like to take advantage of Medicare or insurance coverage, you generally have 2 choices:
Insurance:
We strongly suggest you contact your insurance company first. You can buy from our site, at
www.especialneeds.com, using your credit card, and have it delivered to your location. You will then need to submit to your Insurance for
reimbursement. To do this you will need:
- An invoice from our company
- Your doctor's prescription and diagnosis
- Proof of delivery (packing slip with tracking number)
Medicare:
If you are approved, Medicare will reimburse you (Medicare pays 80% of the cost, your supplementary Insurance will cover the rest) If you do not want to outlay any cash. We recommend that you find a local company that accepts Medicare assignment (up front) check out our DME Supply Store Directory for options. Make sure you fill out the Medicare 1490 Form.
It should be noted, your paperwork must be filled out, submitted and approved before you receive any equipment. Additionally, Medicare and insurance will likely only approve specific equipment for use, i.e. you'll have little or no choice.
