Does Medicare allow companies to provide custom O&P services as well as DME,
such as wheelchairs, crutches and so forth? When I was starting out in 2001,
I was told not to sign up with Medicare for both. I was told that it
creates a red flag and results in possible audits and denials. Since then,
I have been told that Medicare does not allow it. Does anyone understand
the rules in this area and what the reality is?
Thank you,
