Buying crutches in Texas

Where is the best place to buy crutches in Texas?
For same-day pickup, a pharmacy near you is usually fastest and cheapest for basic underarm crutches. For a proper fitting, more than one style to try, or anything you plan to use for months, a medical supply dealer is the better stop. Houston has the widest choice in the state with 2,419 listed suppliers.
Does Texas Medicaid or Medicare pay for crutches?
Medicare Part B treats crutches as durable medical equipment and generally pays 80% of the approved amount after your deductible, provided you have a written order and use a supplier enrolled in Medicare. State Medicaid rules vary. See the full breakdown.
