Durable medical equipment providers face a complex tangle of regulations with little room for error
The durable medical equipment (DME) industry encompasses a wide range of devices spanning crutches to oxygen machines – and is also subject to an equally robust set of regulatory frameworks where the penalties for non-compliance can be severe. To help providers navigate the complex array of local, state and federal laws that govern the DME industry, Wolters Kluwer CT Corporation is hosting a webinar, “Business Licensing 101: Compliance Fundamentals for Providers of Durable Medical Equipment”, on May 10 at 1 PM ET.
Hans Howk, Manager of Content Management at Wolters Kluwer CT Corporation, will review some of the most common licensing pitfalls that DME companies encounter and offer strategies that providers can leverage to avoid civil and criminal penalties while maintaining regulatory compliance throughout the lifecycle of their business. The webinar will also outline how compliance requirements may vary among different DME businesses.
“Effectively managing business license requirements is essential to any DME provider’s long-term success,” Howk says. “In an increasingly complex licensing environment, engaging the services of a trusted provider like CT Corporation is the most efficient way to track those obligations and ensure ongoing compliance.”
Howk also discussed the regulatory challenges faced by DME providers during a recent episode of the CT Expert Insights podcast. He joined CT Corporation following the company’s acquisition of business license services provider LicenseLogix in October 2021 and consults with members of the Business Licensing Team on issues such as legal industry nuances, regulations pertaining to business law, and searching and synthesizing statutes.
