medicare and new machine

I'm now eligible for a new machine. I'm being told Medicare needs a reason for me to have a new machine such as the old one is broken or there is a medical necessity. If this a real requirement or am I getting the run around? My machine is now 5 years old.

This topic was discussed a few minutes ago. See "Medicare and New Machine" below.

I didn't notice the precious exact same subject. Thanks for pointing me to it.
It seems like I can get a new machine.
