Standards Notice from new Medicare DME

Post by NateS » Thu Sep 05, 2013 3:48 pm

I got this notice in the mail from my new DME through the Medicare Competitive Bidding Program, along with some other papers. I don't know whether these are newly revised requirements or just a rehash, but I found it interesting and thought I should share it just in case it is new:

If you have any trouble reading it, just hit Control & the + Key a couple times (or Cmmand & + Key if on Mac)

Nate, I have already signed my name with the new DMEPOS and even received a package in the mail containing supply of masks, etc. for a full year.
