What To Do About Prescription Medical Supplies

When your doctor prescribes medicine, you know where to go. But what about when you get a prescription for medical supplies?

If I Need Medical Supplies, Where Do I Go?

Most people don’t know what to do with a prescription for medical supplies or if their insurance will cover it. Referred to as health care materials ordered or prescribed by a physician, primarily used to serve a purpose, Some traditional pharmacies can dispense these items. And others have specific Medical Supply Departments.

We Specialize in Patients Who Need the Following:

  • Catheters or urological
  • Nutritional
  • Incontinence

Does My Insurance Cover Medical Supplies?

Let’s be honest, health insurance can be complicated. It’s true that some insurances cover some medical supplies and not others. And there are different requirements and documentation needed.
