Adjustable bed suggestions (attached control)

I've never seen an adjustable bed with the controls built into the bed itself.

If mom needs an adjustable bed, could her doctor order her a hospital bed? Medicare will pay for purchase or rental of an adjustable hospital bed when ordered for certain conditions. Most DME companies will allow you to upgrade to an electric model with controls on the rails for an additional fee.

Alternately, if she very late stage, hospice can provide a hospital bed as well. You can often find used hospital beds via donation or on Craigslist FB Marketplace.

Equipment supply houses will push purchases to avoid the rental billing- with MC you usually need to rent, if covered, for a while before a purchase is ok'd. [Check the suppliers status with Medicare too- we've had them say "yes we take MC" but found some lost their access, some are not participating etc.]

You'll want participating and accepts assignment.

Getting rid of a hospital bed was a nightmare too - slowed a home sale until we could get it removed- not the kind of staging that sells- so renting would have been cheaper and easier.
