| 00-10482 | Medicare Program; Payment for Upgraded Durable Medical Equipment | Proposed Rule | This proposed rule would amend the Medicare regulations to permit Medicare suppliers to furnish upgraded durable medical equipment (DME) on an assignment basis. Medicare payment would be made to the supplier as if the DME were non-upgraded DME; and the beneficiary purchasing or renting the upgraded DME would pay the supplier an amount equal to the difference between the supplier's charge for the DME upgrade and the amount paid by Medicare for the non-upgraded DME. This proposed rule would also require the following consumer protection safeguards: determination of fair market prices, proof of full disclosure of the availability and cost of non-upgraded DME, and sanctions against suppliers who engage in coercive or abusive sales practices. | 2000-04-27 | 2000 | 4 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/04/27/00-10482/medicare-program-payment-for-upgraded-durable-medical-equipment | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-04-27/pdf/00-10482.pdf | Health and Human Services Department; Health Care Finance Administration | 221,559 | This proposed rule would amend the Medicare regulations to permit Medicare suppliers to furnish upgraded durable medical equipment (DME) on an assignment basis.
