Hospital Bed Rentals comes in your choice of 2 motor semi-electric or 3 motor fully electric Hi-Lo. Semi-Electric Hospital Beds electric adjust your back and your legs to any position you desire; the 3 motor fully electric Hi-Lo Hospital Beds also allow you to electrically elevate the entire bed up and down.
You may need the fully electric High-Low Hospital Bed Rental if you have difficulty getting in and out of bed; or if you are transferring in and out of a wheelchair; or if you are under nurses care (the nurse may need to get you higher so it is easier for her to assist the patient in moving around on the hospital bed).
There are also LOW Hospital Bed Rentals. The LOW Hospital Beds may be useful to those who may fall out of bed. Many alzheimer patients need the optional LOW Hospital bed.
If you need a bed to go either very LOW or very HIGH, let us know what your Hospital Rental preferences are.
Half Rails are usually standard on a hospital bed rentals. Some people prefer the full rails. Side rails are designed to help the patient move around in the bed by themselves, or to help them get out of bed, or to even help them stay in bed. Let us know your preferences.
Some Hospital Beds come available 4" longer than the extra long 80"; i.e. 84". If someone is 6.1" and taller we would recommend to look at the 36" x 84" long beds.
WIDE Hospital Bed Rentals are available for those who are HEAVY or just prefer a bigger bed. A standard hospital bed, whether semi or fully electric is 36" wide (that is 2" less wide than a standard twinsize bed). Adjustable Bed Rentals are a little different than Hospital Bed Rentals in the facts that they look almost EXACTLY like a regular bed, without the "cot-spring" hospital bed look. Adjustable Beds moreover can be made in ANY Bed Size.
Bariatric WIDE Beds come 48" wide. But, some people want the Full or Regular or Double Size - which is 53" wide; and others want the Queen - which is 60" wide. The FULL or QUEEN size hospital bed rentals are available in 3 motor versions too. Many of these beds look much better than standard Hospital Beds.
A standard hospital bed rental usually has a 300 pound weight capability. But people who weigh over 250 pounds probably would NOT like the 36" standard width of a hospital bed.
Medicare only really pays for the standard 2 motor semi electric hospital bed. You have to have special reasons to get Medicare to pay for a WIDER bed. Please call if you need MEDICARE assistance (800)477-0248.

For any item to be covered by Medicare, it must 1) be eligible for a defined Medicare benefit category, 2) be reasonable and necessary for the diagnosis or treatment of illness or injury or to improve the functioning of a malformed body member, and 3) meet all other applicable Medicare statutory and regulatory requirements.
Indications and Limitations of Coverage and/or Medical Necessity
For any item to be covered by Medicare, it must 1) be eligible for a defined Medicare benefit category, 2) be reasonable and necessary for the diagnosis or treatment of illness or injury or to improve the functioning of a malformed body member, and 3) meet all other applicable Medicare statutory and regulatory requirements. For the items addressed in this medical policy, the criteria for "reasonable and necessary" are defined by the following indications and limitations of coverage and/or medical necessity.
For an item to be covered by Medicare a written signed and dated order must be received by the supplier before a claim is submitted. If the supplier bills for an item addressed in this policy without first receiving the completed order, the item will be denied as not medically necessary.
A fixed height hospital bed is covered if one or more of the following criteria (1-4) are met:
The patient has a medical condition which requires positioning of the body in ways not feasible with an ordinary bed. Elevation of the head/upper body less than 30 degrees does not usually require the use of a hospital bed, or
The patient requires positioning of the body in ways not feasible with an ordinary bed in order to alleviate pain, or
The patient requires the head of the bed to be elevated more than 30 degrees most of the time due to congestive heart failure, chronic pulmonary disease, or problems with aspiration. Pillows or wedges must have been considered and ruled out, or
The patient requires traction equipment, which can only be attached to a hospital bed.
A variable height hospital bed is covered if the patient meets one of the criteria for a fixed height hospital bed and requires a bed height different than a fixed height hospital bed to permit transfers to chair, wheelchair or standing position.
A semi-electric hospital bed is covered if the patient meets one of the criteria for a fixed height bed and requires frequent changes in body position and/or has an immediate need for a change in body position.
A heavy duty extra wide hospital bed is covered if the patient meets one of the criteria for a fixed height hospital bed and the patient's weight is more than 350 pounds, but does not exceed 600 pounds.
An extra heavy-duty hospital bed is covered if the patient meets one of the criteria for a hospital bed and the patient's weight exceeds 600 pounds.
A total electric hospital bed is not covered; the height adjustment feature is a convenience feature. Total electric beds will be paid as the least costly medically appropriate alternative for the comparable semi-electric bed.
For any of the above hospital beds, if documentation does not support the medical necessity of the type of bed billed, payment will be based on the allowance for the least costly medically appropriate alternative.
If the patient does not meet any of the coverage criteria for any type of hospital bed it will be denied as not medically necessary.
