Insurance & Funding

Making Wearable Therapy™ accessible

We work with you to navigate insurance coverage and find funding options for your Wearable Therapy™ devices.

Many private insurance plans will not cover Wearable Therapy™ devices, Tripleflex or WalkAide. Prior approval may be necessary before delivery. Axiobionics requires payment prior to delivery of any of our products. Insurance filing will follow.
