Typically, Medicare doesn't cover the purchase of a new or used wheelchair van because Medicare doesn't consider them "medically necessary" (but try telling that to wheelchair users, their families and their caregivers). While Medicare will pay for power wheelchairs and scooters, unfortunately it will not cover personal mobility vehicles in most cases. For this reason, it's important to work with a mobility van specialist who can help you secure financing, grants, subsidies and other financial assistance so that you can purchase an affordable disability van that fully meets your needs.
