Walk-in Bathtub Pricing

Here at WalkInTubs.Com, we often have customers ask us questions like “how much does a walk-in bath cost?” and “how much should I budget for a walk-in tub installation?” The truth is, that no two walk-in tubs have the same price tag.

The exact price of your tub will vary depending on the brand, size, and level of customization you put into it. That is why we provide free price estimates for all walk-in tub installations. 

How much does a walk-in tub cost?

The cost of installing a walk-in tub will depend on a few key factors. These include the size of the tub, the level of customization, and if major plumbing work (like adding or moving pipes) is required. 

Add-on features like jets, seating, and grab bars will also add to the total cost. On average, walk-in tub installation costs around several thousand dollars, but that price can go up if you want a fully customized model or need substantial renovation work for the bathroom. 

Since the price of a new walk-in tub can vary so much, we offer free price estimates. Please call us at 833-928-5135 to get yours!

Does Medicare cover walk-in tubs?

Although we recommend checking your specific policy, as a general rule walk-in baths are not considered durable medical equipment (DME) by Medicare. As a result, Medicare will most likely not cover costs associated with walk-in tub installation. 

Are walk-in tubs covered by Medicaid?

You may be eligible to have your walk-in tub paid for by Medicaid. Medicaid coverage varies from state to state, so we recommend researching our state’s Medicaid waiver policy or reaching out directly to the state Medicaid office. 

The most likely outcome is that you will have to file a claim for a Medicaid reimbursement where you explain why the walk-in tub was medically necessary. This usually includes a written statement explaining your medical condition and why you need a walk-in tub.
