What Is Considered Durable Medical Equipment (DME)?
Durable medical equipment, commonly referred to as DME, encompasses a variety of medical supplies used to assist with recovery, mobility and overall comfort. In general, DME products require a prescription from your physician and are intended for long-term use throughout the course of your recovery or to aid ongoing treatment. These products enhance quality of life and enable at-home accommodations for those with chronic conditions. Often recommended in the treatment of both acute and chronic conditions, these tools play a crucial role in promoting healing, providing support and helping patients regain independence following an injury or illness.
At DMOS, we provide specialty orthopedic medical equipment following an orthopedic injury or surgery. Common orthopedic supports include braces, slings, crutches, boots and more, but your orthopedic specialist will help determine the right DME product for your recovery.
