| 10% or less | 37% |
| 11% to 25% | 19% |
| 26% to 50% | 14% |
| More than 50% | 21% |
| 100% | 9% |
In our monthly Web poll, we asked how much of providers’ revenues would be affected should the federal budget bill — which includes a provision that would cap oxygen equipment rental at 36 months — gain approval, and you can see the results.
But most providers say reimbursement is the least of their worries with the bill’s rental cap provision: They are more concerned about its effects on their patients.
For further information about the capped-rental proposal and the questions it raises, see “AAHomecare Update” on page 44.
