Reimbursement

We are aggressively working to have a new Medicare code created that will cover the Natural-Fit. In the meantime, our authorized dealers have obtained reimbursement for the Natural-Fit through a variety of State Medicaids and private insurance companies including Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Humana, United Healthcare, Cigna, and AIG.

Also, over 40 Veterans Affairs facilities across the U.S. have purchased the Natural-Fit on behalf of veterans. Please visit our Veterans' Page to learn more.
