Using more than one DME

Post by mets123 » Tue May 25, 2021 1:49 pm

Is it ok to order supplies from more than one dme? Sometimes one dme has the product I want to order and sometimes they do not and I have to use another dme.

If you are using your insurance to purchase supplies, you need to stay with a company that is in your insurance network. If you are paying out of pocket, use as many companies as you like. I have purchased supplies from several companies, some using my insurance and some paying our of pocket.
