walk in tubs can be considered a medical item if they are prescribed by a healthcare provider to improve safety, reduce the risk of falls, or aid in mobility. In such cases, insurance, Medicare Advantage plans, or Medicaid may cover part of the cost if the tub is deemed medically necessary.

While walk in tubs are typically viewed as luxury items, they can be classified as medical equipment if prescribed by a doctor for health reasons, such as mobility challenges or fall prevention. Coverage may be available through insurance or government programs like Medicare Advantage or Medicaid.
