When deciding to improve mobility for you or a loved one, it’s common to research whether Medicare pays for stair lifts. After all, if the intended stair lift user is 65 or older, it’s likely they have other healthcare needs covered by this federal health insurance. 

While on their fact-finding mission, people often come across information stating that Medicare sometimes pays for patient lifts. Naturally, the next question becomes: Are stair lifts a type of patient lift? 

Search for a used stair lift online, and plenty of them are available — often with temptingly low price tags. However, it’s essential to know that online stair chair lift prices can be misleading. And the price of used stair lifts is not the only factor to be cautious about. 

When considering the purchase of a mechanical chair that will be physically lifting you or a loved one up and down the stairs, it makes sense to ensure that your stair chair lift will be safe, reliable, and easy to use for years to come.
