The challenge

An independent pharmacy wanted to add diabetic supplies, CPAP, and orthotics to compete with chains but couldn't bill Medicare without DMEPOS accreditation and supplier number.

Our approach

  • Selected ACHC as DMEPOS accreditor.
  • Built full DMEPOS policy manual covering complaint resolution, intake, delivery, and beneficiary education.
  • Coordinated surety bond placement.
  • Prepared CMS Form 855S enrollment after accreditation.
  • Managed on-site accreditation survey.

The outcome

DMEPOS accreditation issued day 120. Medicare supplier number active day 180. New DMEPOS revenue line reached $32,000/month by month 9.
