Yes sir. And that's a very famous nationally known insurance company.
The DME presented a bill to the insurance company in the amount of $6830.00 for a Remstar Pro, humidifier, nasal mask, hose, and filters. The insurance company disallowed almost 2/3 of it!
Just keep in mind, Werkz, that if you were to become a DME you'd have to take quite a beating on this forum to make that kind of profit. It goes with the territory.
