does medicare cover spa or hot tubs?!


Question:
i need to find a spa or hot tub covered by medicare because i have chronic pain and fibromyalgia
Answers:
Medicare won't pay for spas or hot tubs. Even if your doctor gave you a certificate of medical necessity, Medicare won't cover it. You can call 1-800 MEDICARE or your local medical equipment supply company to see if Medicare might cover it for you. Medicare does pay for some types of physical and occupational therapy.

I also have fibromyalgia and chronic pain, so good luck and good health to you.

ha ha ha, i doubt it.

ha!
you wish

Here, your doctor would have to request this item as a medical necessity. He would need to state your illness and describe exactly why this machine is needed and how often. Then he would need to sign a Doctor's Certificate. This information would need to be mailed to the appropriate agency for approval.
