If you help your Medicare patients obtain certain medical equipment and supplies, such as oxygen or power wheelchairs, you need to know about new requirements for Medicare suppliers of durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies (DMEPOS).
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is notifying beneficiaries who may need to change suppliers in order for Medicare to pay for their equipment and supplies. The CMS letter encourages them to check with their supplier to make sure that the supplier meets the new requirements. The letter also instructs them to find another supplier, if necessary.
