I just googled Medicare.com and what I understand is that diapers are not covered because they are thrown out after use...they're termed 'non-durable'...I had also googled the actual question, but nothing popped up...sorry...

Thanks for trying Athena3! Too bad about the diapers! I wonder if cloth ones are covered? Not that that is a great option.
