For the record - as mentioned by others - it is up to the DME to record and store this data "in case" they are audited by "Medicare" and not up to the user. Tho many of us here could provide that info if the need ever does arise.

I think this provider was worried about getting paid and I stand by my earlier post in this thread that I would not want to be doing business with a provider like this. After all there must be a reason why they are worried.

I thought it was just me. I posted to this in 2010
