About Diabetic Shoes and Medicare coverage
Medicare Part B covers one pair of therapeutic shoes and three pairs of inserts per calendar year for beneficiaries with diabetes and at least one documented foot condition: peripheral neuropathy with evidence of callus formation, history of ulceration, foot deformity, previous amputation, or poor circulation. A physician certified in podiatry or orthotics must prescribe and fit the shoes. We work with certified fitters across the Phoenix metro and handle the billing directly.
"I called at 9 AM and my CGM supplies were at my door by the next morning. The rep explained my Part B coverage clearly — something my pharmacy never did."
