Best Answer

Anyone can ride around in a mobility scooter, but it is usually used by people who have severely restricted mobility - as in, they can only walk a few steps at a time.

The requirements of qualifications for Medicare or other insurance coverage is a little more complicated. Generally, one must require use of a mobility scooter to get around their home - that is, one must be unable to walk around the house without aid of a mobility device. A mobility evaluation, performed by a doctor, is usually used to determine these capabilities.
