Help in the Keys please...
Okay folks! Just moved down the Keys. Have my CPAP, but I have no clue on how to find a DME to hook me up with an O2 generator. My DME in Michigan doesn't serve this area and they weren't much help on who to call. Thanks!!!

Re: Help in the Keys please...
Since most Medicare providers accept private insurance, and maybe medicaid, here's a place to look
Just put your zip code in, and adjust distance as needed, selecting type of needs:

Homestead is due north on US 1. I'm sure someone there could take care of your needs.

Call the Fisherman's Hospital, (oops, it might be called Mariner Hospital, I can't remember)I think is on Key West. Ask for Case Management Dept and see who they refer the patients to, who need home O2.

When in doubt, open the case. Remember: If you can't open it, you don't own it!

I'm in S. Florida, not that far north of the Keys. The DME names I've seen in this area are the biggies - ones that you may or may not be interested in - listed alphabetically: Apria, Lincare and Walgreens. I've not encountered any of the "Mom and Pop-type" shops that some here have mentioned having had good experiences with, unfortunately.
