Medicare and Incontinence Supplies: What You Need to Know
Medicare can help cover certain incontinence products for individuals with medical needs, making caregiving more affordable and accessible.
While Medicare typically does not cover disposable items like briefs or pads, it may cover reusable supplies or products prescribed by a physician as part of a treatment plan.
HDIS.com simplifies the process by offering a wide selection of incontinence solutions, including protective underwear, underpads, and skin care essentials, along with guidance on what may qualify under Medicare.
With expert support and discreet delivery, HDIS ensures caregivers and patients get the right products quickly and confidently. Trust HDIS.com as your reliable source for Medicare-friendly incontinence supplies and compassionate care solutions.

FSA and HSA spending accounts CAN be used for incontinence supplies. FSA/HSA funds must go towards expenses for items that are medically necessary.
The best way to provide this proof is to get an “incontinence diagnosis” from a medical professional. With a doctor's confirmation of your condition, it is easier to provide documentation (if necessary, in case of an audit) to your FSA/HSA plan if needed.
Incontinence supplies are not eligible with a dependent care flexible spending account (DCFSA) or a limited-purpose flexible spending account (LPFSA).
