Medicare will cover accessories for your power wheelchair or scooter if the accessories help you function in your home and perform activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and eating. Adjustable arm heights, headrest extensions, and leg rests are examples of accessories you may need. Medicare will not cover an accessory if it will be used only to help you with leasure or recreational activities.
