Frequently Asked Questions About Hospital Beds
How fast can you deliver a hospital bed to my home in Naperville or Downers Grove?
We offer same-day and next-day delivery. If your doctor sends the order or you call us by midday, we can often have the bed assembled in your bedroom before the patient arrives home from the hospital.
What does Medicare pay toward a hospital bed in Illinois?
Medicare Part B pays 80% of the approved allowable rental fee for a semi-electric bed once your deductible is met. You or your secondary insurance pays the remaining 20% (typically around $30/month). We verify your exact benefits before delivery.
Can I upgrade from semi-electric to full-electric?
Yes. While Medicare standard coverage is for semi-electric, you can pay a modest monthly or one-time upgrade fee to receive a full-electric bed. We disclose all out-of-pocket costs clearly upfront.
