These suppliers deliver rather than sell over a counter. They are registered for equipment like oxygen, dialysis and mail-order supplies, so they are the wrong call for crutches today and the right call for equipment that arrives at your door.

Want insurance to pay
You need a written order from your clinician and a supplier enrolled in Medicare. That is the supply dealer lane. How coverage works.

What each kind of supplier stocks
Medical supply store
Home medical equipment and durable medical equipment (DME) dealers. This is the category most likely to stock more than one style of crutch and to fit them for you.
Usually carries underarm and forearm crutches, walkers, canes, and knee scooters. Most bill Medicare and private insurance, which needs a prescription from your doctor.
Pharmacy
Retail and community pharmacies. The fastest same-day option in most towns, and the one open latest.
Typically stocks basic aluminum underarm crutches off the shelf, sometimes a cane or a folding walker. Selection is thin and forearm crutches are rare.
Orthotics & prosthetics
O&P practices that fabricate and fit braces, prosthetic limbs, and custom supports.
The right call if you need crutches long term or need them fitted around a brace or prosthesis. Often carries forearm crutches that retail pharmacies never stock.

- A pharmacy is usually the fastest option. 4 are listed on this page. Most retail pharmacies keep basic aluminum underarm crutches in stock for roughly $25 to $45 and do not need a prescription. Call first, because crutches are a low-turnover item and a single store may be out.
- Do I need a prescription to buy crutches in New York?
- No. Crutches are sold over the counter, and anyone can walk in and buy a pair.
