Common questions

Will my insurance cover my equipment?+

It depends on your specific plan, the equipment requested, and whether your provider documents it as medically necessary. We verify your benefits before anything ships so there are no surprises.

Do I need a prescription?+

Most DME requires a written order or prescription from your physician, nurse practitioner, or other qualified provider confirming medical necessity.

What if my equipment isn't covered?+

You can still purchase equipment out of pocket. We'll let you know the cash price up front if coverage isn't available or if you'd rather not go through insurance.

How long does the approval process take?+

Timelines vary by payer and by whether prior authorization is required. Our team will keep you updated at each stage of the process.

Coverage, reimbursement and eligibility are determined by the patient's insurance plan and applicable payer policies. Verification of benefits does not guarantee payment.
