Re: Time for new machine
Thanks for all the responses
I reconnected with DME that I ordered the machine from and is preparing the report to show the doctor. I’m going to see him on Tuesday.
In the mean time I will sit back and read what you have to say.

I wil...

Re: Insurance and DME
Not my insurance. They already paid for it, your are right MOST insurance but not mine, as long as there was a prescription the insurance cared less about compliance. To my knowledge, the only time compliance become an issue is when you are going thru an employer and DOT card but then again I could ...
