It is time to stand-up for our industry. Home Medical Equipment providers are making
their voices heard to support HR 3790, the bill to repeal the DMEPOS bidding program.

If competitive bidding proceeds

• 90% of area Medicare providers will lose the ability to serve beneficiaries
• Hundreds of businesses will close, thousands more Californians will be unemployed
• Round 1 reimbursement cuts of over 30% can be implemented throughout California
• California insurance companies will replicate Medicare Cuts
• Most importantly, quality products and timely services will no longer exist

There will be information distributed, presentations, and lessons on how to engage
legislators for the benefit of all DME providers in California.
