Question
CAN THIS MATTRESS FIT A FULL SIZE BEDALSO, IS IT COVERED BY MEDICARE, ETC

Answer

This unit will not fit a full size bed as a full bed is 54 x 75 and this mattress is only 48 x 80.  All of our air mattresses are 80 inches in length, however we do have a 54 inch width which may work for you but may be a bit long.

Unfortunately we do not handle any type of insurance, but we may provide the necessary documentation in order for you to be reimbursed by Medicare.

Question
I need a complete set for my husband who has lung cancer. Can you provide me what I need to buy a portable unit that is most convenient for him to enjoy his remaining days.thank you

Answer

We cannot advise exactly what is required, this would need to be advised by a prescribing physician.

Generally the items for an "oxygen setup" would consist of an oxygen cylinder, regulator or conserver, tubing and mask or nasal cannula and possibly a carry bag.

Answer
The M6 cylinders usually weigh around 4 pounds.  Depending upon your conserver setting, the flow may be up to 4 hours.  We do not require prescription for this item, however we do not supply the oxygen for this product.
