Answer: Your medical equipment provider will send all necessary paperwork to DSS. Ask your provider to contact your doctor to gather all medical information needed to support your request (including the prescription).
The department will also review requests for DME received from you, your doctor or others on your behalf. The department will review these requests in terms of medical necessity and department regulations. Requests must now go through CHNCT via either:
