Proposed Rule Relaxes DMEPOS Supplier Restrictions

CMS Recently released a proposed rule which would reverse the policy of heightening restrictions on suppliers of durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies (DMEPOS).  The proposed rule relaxes previously onerous rules regarding the prohibition of telemarketing and beneficiary solicitation which were implemented on September 27, 2010.  If you have any questions about how this proposed rule will affect your current compliance program, please contact a Wachler & Associates attorney at 248-544-0888.
