Are you interested in a stairlift, but not sure of how to pay for it or how the financing process goes? Then, the information here is a must-read. Today, we’re going to go over a few options on how to finance a stairlift. You deserve to age in place and be comfortable in your home. A stairlift can help you do so.
TimePayment Financing
How this type of financing works is all in the name. It allows you to finance a stairlift in your own time. Once approved, you can fund your stairlift by making affordable, monthly payments. You can apply online for an instant credit decision. TimePayment will email lease documents, submit signed documents via email or fax, and make payments super convenient. You can make payments online and manage an online account. TimePayment financing works on both the commercial and consumer level.
Medicare and Medicaid
At this time, Medicare does not cover stairlifts. However, Medicaid does help pay for stairlifts in Maryland and many other states. The Medicaid Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) have waivers that help individuals age in place and help pay for home modifications. Each state has its guidelines, and there can be waiting lists, but waivers can be extremely helpful and advantageous, especially if you’re on a budget or have limited income.
What Happens if Medicaid Cannot Cover Your Stairlift
The fantastic news is that there are many state grants, charitable funds, and community organizations that can help you pay for a stairlift. State Home Modification Loans (HMLP) exist as well as Homecare Benefits and Veterans programs. The link that we provided is a lot to sort through, but it goes to show how many options you have.
