DME: A Vital Industry Supported by Surety Bonds

Durable Medical Equipment Suppliers (DME) play a crucial role in healthcare. DME includes wheelchairs, hospital beds, oxygen equipment, and many other devices designed to aid mobility, manage chronic conditions, and promote recovery.

DME suppliers who want to bill Medicare (the federal health insurance program for those over 65) and meet one of the requirements, must first obtain a DMEPOS bond per location. This bond guarantees:

• Ethical business practices: Protects Medicare and clients from fraud or misrepresentation.
• Project completion and payments: Ensures suppliers complete projects and make necessary payments.
• Protection against overpayment: Safeguards against repayments in cases where the government has overpaid.

Surety bonds demonstrate a DME supplier’s reliability and financial stability, helping them secure larger contracts.

We specialize in helping DME businesses obtain the bonds they need. We offer:

• Expert Guidance: We help you understand different bond types and requirements.
