Medicare & You
We have listed below, for your convenience, Medicare's provider standards, with which we comply:

A provider will fill orders from its own inventory or inventory of other companies with which it has contracts to fill such orders; or fabricates or fits items for sale from supplies it buys under a contract.
  • A provider is responsible to oversee delivery of items that the provider ordered for the beneficiary. The provider is also responsible to assure delivery of large items to the beneficiary.
  • A provider honors all warranties, expressed or implied, under applicable State Law.
  • A provider will answer questions or complaints a beneficiary has about an item or use of an item that is sold or rented to the beneficiary. If the beneficiary has questions about Medicare, the supplier will refer the beneficiary to the appropriate carrier.
  • A provider maintains and repairs directly, or through a service contract with another company, items it rents to a beneficiary.
  • A provider accepts returns of substandard (less than full quality for a particular item), or unsuitable items inappropriate for the beneficiary at the time it was fitted and/or sold, from the beneficiary.
  • A provider discloses consumer information to each Medicare customer. This consists of a copy of these supplier standards to which it must conform.
A provider complies with the disclosure provisions in Title XI of the Social Security Act, section 1124A (a).
