Are incontinence supplies covered by medicare?

My father is incontinent and has to wear adult diapers. He spends $100.00 a month on Adult diapers to manage his incontinence.

My dad has Medicare and I'm wondering if he can get his incontinence supplies Adult diapers covered through Medicare?

If not is there any other way for my dad to get his adult diapers paid for through health insurance or something else?

Regular medicare doesn't cover incontinence supplies but if your dad has supplemental medicare then it might pay for the incontinent supplies.

Check with your health insurance as well as your dads health insurance might be able to cover the incontinence supplies.
