Outlining DME Policies & Procedures for Now -- and the Future

Outlining DME Policies & Procedures for Now -- and the FutureHME providers and accrediting organizations share a common dilemma: Providers are trying to fill new and unique care segments to rapidly take advantage of market opportunities. They also face a flood of change management challenges while keeping up with accreditation.

How do accreditation standards become flexible to help providers remain strategic? Community Healthcare Accreditation Partners (CHAP) is tackling that with an accreditation guide that seeks to outline DME policies and procedures for now and the future. Jackie King, CHAP director of accreditation, and Dan McPhilemy, senior vice president of marketing, discuss how CHAP is helping HME providers stay nimble while meeting the necessary standards.

We can’t impact the quality care being provided in communities and through our DME and HME partners if we’re not partnering with them to help them solve their problems and looking at showing them everything they need to do to operate in excellence.
