Bob, this is almost exactly what we paid over 6 years ago, so that figure is
probably still close depending on make and model, my back up chair is getting
about old and outdated....I think I will need a new chair this year also. Dan

Hi Greg,
I am working on an article for New Mobility magazine and specifically working
on this part of the article—how much doesMedicare pricing reimburse compared to
Retail price. I compared the leading Manufacturers—Permobil, Pride (Quantum)
and for what you are looking for, base, tilt recline, etc. the prices are
similar.
The one I “created” was based on a person who needed power tilt and power
recline and power elevating leg rests, also a custom back support.
Keep in mind this was just information for an article, however I did check and
re-check on this. Medicare reimbursement for this this chair came to
$18,141.00. Your co-pay would be 20% of $18,141.00, so you are looking at a
co-pay of around$3,628
Hope this helps.

19-20 K is an easy guess. Base price for a simple mobility chair is 6-7k
Rehab Chairs 10-12KBut you can call a local DME and ask over the phone. Best
