Dialysis (Kidney) Home Dialysis Equipment and Supplies
 

Generally, you pay 20% of the cost to buy or rent equipment and supplies. If you deal with a supplier (not the dialysis facility), the $100 deductible applies and your supplier must accept assignment.

Medicare covers home dialysis equipment and supplies (like alcohol, wipes, sterile drapes, rubber gloves and scissors).

Medicare is the name given to a health insurance program administered by the United States government, covering people who are either age 65 and over, or who meet other special criteria.
