In-Step Mobility Will be Happy to Assist You in Submitting Your Medicare Claims

The U-Step Walking Stabilizer is partially Medicare and insurance reimbursable. Reimbursements vary depending upon your coverage type.

Medicare reimbursement for the U-Step typically ranges from $109 to $432, the higher amount authorized for neurological conditions, including Parkinson's Disease, requiring a heavy duty walker with a multiple braking system and variable wheel resistance (HCPCS code E0147).

Prior reimbursement for a power scooter may disqualify one for coverage. Also, Medicare reimbursement for any type of walker during the past five years requires documentation to warrant coverage for an advanced walker due to a change in health.

Medicare approves advanced walkers for home use only. Patients in a hospital, skilled nursing facility or hospice are not eligible for reimbursement.

Insurance companies typically reimburse 80% of the cost of the U-Step.
