dme errors

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share some insights on something we all deal with in the DME world — DME errors. While errors can be frustrating, they’re also an opportunity to improve systems, enhance staff training, and ultimately deliver better service to patients.

Over time, I’ve noticed that most DME errors stem from common issues like incorrect documentation, mismatched HCPCS codes, or missing prior authorizations. The good news? With the right tools and workflows in place, these can be drastically reduced.

Implementing automated checks, using up-to-date billing software, and investing in ongoing team education has made a big difference in our operations. I’d love to hear how others here are handling DME errors in their practices — any tips or success stories?

Let’s turn these challenges into learning points. Looking forward to your thoughts!
