   Most of the U.S.

   Yes, Medicare will pay for a quad cane if it is prescribed by a doctor as medically necessary for support in walking. An exception might be if you were using a walker and went "backwards" to using a cane. Medicare will not pay for a downgrade like that, but would pay for an upgrade (e.g. single point cane upgrade to quad cane).
