In the new Quality Standards for Suppliers of DMEPOS (revised
08/14/2006) on page 12 under section entitled Preparation subsection
entitled Intake is the following verbiage:.
In addition to the requirements in the General Product - Specific
Service Requirements, the supplier shall...
* Collect pre-treatment photographic documentation as appropriate
for the item
Can anyone offer some clarification as to what exactly CMS requirements
are? Are we to take pictures of all patients? All amputees? All
patients requiring custom molded products? Surely many of you
unfortunate souls going through competitive bidding and the requisite
accreditation have addressed this. I'm trying to be compliant but I
need a little clarification. Thanks in advance
