SleepSafe® beds are made by SleepSafe Beds. Healthcare DME is the medical equipment supplier: we handle the insurance and Medicaid process and order the bed configured for the patient.

Is the SleepSafer® TALL Safety Bed covered by Medicaid or insurance?

Yes, for patients who qualify. Healthcare DME supplies the SleepSafer® TALL Safety Bed only through health insurance and Medicaid, when a doctor prescribes it as medically necessary.

Most plans approve a safety bed through prior authorization. Approval depends on the patient’s diagnosis and the safety risks the doctor documents, so it is never guaranteed, but our team knows what plans look for and prepares the request with you. See every plan we accept.

Frequently asked questions

Does Medicaid cover the SleepSafer® TALL bed?

Medicaid and many private plans cover it when a doctor documents that it is medically necessary, usually through prior authorization. We are in network with Medicaid in Alaska, Arizona (AHCCCS), Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Montana, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Utah and Washington and with major Michigan health plans.

Which SleepSafe® bed height is right?

Choose by how the person moves at night. The SleepSafe® LOW (35¾” floor-to-rail) suits users who roll or slide out of bed; the SleepSafe® II MEDIUM (45¾”) suits users who sit up or kneel; the SleepSafer® TALL (54¾”) suits active climbers; and the SleepSafe® Extension (72″, with an optional top) is for determined climbers. The therapist or doctor writing the letter of medical necessity should explain why the chosen height is needed.

Can the SleepSafer® TALL be made taller later?

Yes. Extension retrofit conversions are available for SleepSafer® TALL beds, which turn the bed into a SleepSafe® Extension with or without a top. A conversion needs its own prescription and approval.

What paperwork does insurance need?

Usually a prescription (written order) from the treating doctor, a letter of medical necessity, recent clinical notes and a copy of the insurance card. The letter should explain the diagnosis, the safety risks during sleep, what has already been tried, and how the bed will be used and supervised. You can upload documents with your eligibility request, or send them later.
