Hi all,
Has anyone heard or know anything about braces being dispensed from a
vending machine in a hospital?
  Apparently the way it works is similar to the closet stock idea, the
vendor puts the me chine in the hospital (with all approvals done) and when
a brace is ordered by a dr, if it is something that the machine carries, the
patient ID is entered
and brace is dispenced. The information is transferred to vendor who then
bills for the brace. I do not know if can be outpatient or must be
inpatient..
There is supposedly a O&P company trying this.
Thanks for any input.
