Medicare DMEPOS Suppliers May Need to Take Immediate Action to Preserve their Businesses



by Michael P. Gennett
Akerman Senterfitt - Miami Office

October 7, 2009

Previously published on September 2009

Medicare suppliers of durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics and supplies (DMEPOS), unless exempt, must be accredited and secure a surety bond by October 1, 2009 and October 2, 2009 respectively. Failure to meet these requirements will result in revocation of the supplier's billing number. Revocation under these circumstances will bar the supplier from re-enrolling in Medicare for at least 1 year after the date of revocation.
