What Is Required?
You or your loved one will be required to provide the following information which Aeroflow Urology will help you gather. You or your loved one may also need to meet the following requirements to be eligible for coverage.
- A healthcare provider’s diagnosis of incontinence with the underlying medical condition or disability that causes incontinence, such as autism, spinal cord injury, Alzheimer’s disease, etc.
- The number of incontinence products you or your loved one will require on a daily basis (i.e. 4 bladder control pads, 2 disposable underpads, 6 pull-ons).
- Must be 3 years of age or older.
- Must be a Medicaid recipient in the state you live in. Each person applying for Medicaid-covered incontinence supplies must be beneficiaries of their own Medicaid plan.
- A signed Certificate of Medical Necessity (CMN). A CMN is documented proof from your healthcare professional within the last 6 months that your supplies are “medically necessary.” You may also need a written prescription from your healthcare provider for incontinence supplies. The required paperwork will be dependent on the requirements of your state.
