Be Prepared for Competitive Bidding

With the recent CMS announcement, homecare providers are faced with the challenge of participating in competitive bidding. The deadline to submit your bid to Medicare is looming.

We realize that you may not have the ability to offer all five oxygen classes today. This may not only affect your decision to bid, but may be causing you to entertain thoughts of exiting the oxygen business– at least for Medicare recipients.

Don’t let competitive bidding scare you out of the business. Let LifeGas O₂Shield be your subcontract solution. Our program, O₂Shield delivers all five oxygen classes. Our product mix includes curbside liquid oxygen, stationary concentrators, high pressure cylinders, and the higher technology devices available in today’s market.
