Obtaining DME Accreditation
Trying to compare options between acquiring an existing DME vs creating/accrediting one from scratch. Pros and Cons.
We have seen claims like the one below as the advantages for acquiring an existing DME listed for sale:
"NO Waiting for Long Application approvals, Medicare License can be moved to ANY STATE IN THE US. Purchase and continue billing Medicare very QUICKLY. Contact NOW we have the medical consultant,and medical attorney for a smooth transition."
Is the above true that a Medicare "license" which is a misnomer can be moved (transferable) anywhere in the US? Is the DME accreditation process for reaccreditation shorter even with a Change of Ownership (CHOW)? And how can the new owner purchase and continue billing Medicare very "quickly". What is considered "quickly"?
Are we missing something here?
