Insurance: Medicare, Medicaid & Private Pay
A & Z Medical Supplies accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and most private insurance, and we also welcome private-pay customers. We verify your coverage in-store and handle the billing paperwork for you. Coverage and out-of-pocket cost vary by plan and item — bring your insurance card and any doctor’s order, and we’ll check exactly what applies to you.*
For Medicare or Medicaid to help pay for certain equipment, such as a hospital bed, wheelchair, or lift chair, a physician’s order documenting medical necessity is usually required. Our team will tell you exactly what’s needed and guide you through it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you accept Medicare and Medicaid?
Yes. A & Z Medical Supplies accepts Medicare and Medicaid, plus private pay. We verify your coverage in-store and handle the billing paperwork for you. Coverage and out-of-pocket cost vary by plan and item, so bring your card and any doctor’s order and we’ll check what applies to you.
Do you deliver medical equipment?
Yes. We deliver and set up equipment like hospital beds, wheelchairs, and walkers across Westerville, Columbus, Worthington, Dublin, New Albany, and Gahanna. Same-day pickup is also available on most in-stock items. Call (614) 776-4445 to arrange delivery.
Can I rent medical equipment instead of buying?
Yes. We rent wheelchairs, hospital beds, walkers, rollators, transport chairs, and knee scooters on flexible monthly terms. Rentals are ideal after surgery, for visiting family, or to try before you buy. If Medicare may cover owning your own unit, we’ll help you check.
Do I need a prescription to buy medical equipment?
Most items can be purchased without a prescription. However, for Medicare or Medicaid to help pay for certain equipment, a doctor’s order is usually required. Bring any prescription you have and we’ll tell you exactly what’s needed for coverage.
Does Medicare cover wheelchairs?
Medicare Part B may cover a manual wheelchair as durable medical equipment when your doctor documents it’s medically necessary for use in your home. You typically pay a portion after your deductible. Coverage varies by plan. Bring your doctor’s order and we’ll verify your benefits.
Does Medicare pay for a hospital bed at home?
Medicare Part B may cover a home hospital bed when your doctor certifies it’s medically necessary. You usually pay a share of the cost after your deductible, and the bed must come from an enrolled supplier. Coverage varies by plan. We’ll verify benefits and arrange delivery and setup.
How much does it cost to rent a hospital bed?
Hospital bed rental is billed on flexible monthly terms, and your actual cost depends on the bed type and whether Medicare or Medicaid covers part of it. Many customers pay only a share after insurance. Call (614) 776-4445 for current pricing and to check your coverage.
What’s the difference between a walker and a rollator?
A walker has four legs and gives maximum stability — you lift or push it as you step. A rollator has four wheels, hand brakes, and a built-in seat for resting. Walkers suit those needing more support; rollators suit those who walk farther. We’ll help you choose.
What equipment do I need at home after knee or hip surgery?
Common items include a walker or rollator, a raised toilet seat, a shower chair or tub transfer bench, grab bars, and sometimes a knee scooter. A & Z can build a personalized recovery list, fit each item, and tell you what Medicare may cover.
Does Medicaid cover incontinence supplies in Ohio?
Ohio Medicaid may cover incontinence supplies such as briefs and underpads when they’re medically necessary and documented by a provider. Covered amounts and brands vary by plan. Bring your information to A & Z and we’ll check your eligibility and set up convenient, discreet re-orders.
Do you price match other stores?
Yes. A & Z offers a Price Match Guarantee — if you find a lower advertised price on the same in-stock item, we’ll match it with valid proof of the lower price. Some exclusions apply. Because we also bill Medicare and Medicaid directly, your out-of-pocket cost here may be lower.
Can a doctor’s office or discharge planner send a referral?
Absolutely. We welcome referrals from physicians, hospital discharge planners, case managers, and physical therapists. Send orders to our fax at (844) 643-9306 or call (614) 776-4445. We provide reliable fulfillment, Medicare and Medicaid billing, and a patient experience that reflects well on your practice.
