Does health insurance cover home adaptations?

Aids and Adaptations
The Original Medicare does not cover home adaptations, and though some Medicare Advantage plans may help cover certain home safety equipment, the support is still limited. In some U.S. states, Medicaid may help pay for certain home improvements. Some expenses — such as the cost for ramps, grab bars, modified kitchen cabinets, and widened doorways — may be eligible for tax deductions. Check the IRS for tax deductible expenses or consult an accountant.
