Yes, if you qualify. West Virginia Medicaid provides coverage for medically necessary incontinence products for eligible children (ages 3+) and adults.

Eligible children with West Virginia Medicaid may be able to get a range of the following supplies to manage incontinence and stay comfortable each day. These include:

• Pull-ups.
• Diapers
• Underpads (chux).
• Booster pads.

Adults with West Virginia Medicaid may also be eligible to receive a variety of incontinence products and care supplies to support daily comfort and hygiene:

• Adult diapers (adult briefs).

Unfortunately, West Virginia Medicaid does not cover gloves and wipes.

To receive incontinence supplies at no cost through West Virginia Medicaid with Aeroflow Urology, you need to meet a few eligibility requirements. These requirements depend on your specific Medicaid plan. 

Our Continence Care Specialists are here to help you gather everything you need and make the process easy. To see if you qualify, take a look at the following requirements:

• Must be a West Virginia Medicaid recipient.

• Children must be 3 years of age or older.

• A documented medical reason for needing the supplies, such as an incontinence diagnosis linked to a condition or disability.

• An estimated number of incontinence products you need each day (for example, 4 adult briefs, 2 disposable underpads, etc.).

• A qualifying disability or medical condition that causes incontinence and is diagnosed by a healthcare professional, such as autism, Parkinson’s disease, Down syndrome, menopause, etc.

• Depending on your insurance, a signed Certificate of Medical Necessity (documented proof from your doctor within the last 6 months that your items are medically necessary) and / or a prescription from your healthcare provider.
