WASHINGTON, D.C. (August 23, 2018)—AAHomecare’s Medical Supplies Council is conducting a survey to evaluate the impact of sole source contracts on beneficiary access to care. Beneficiaries and case managers in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Tennessee and Texas are invited to take a brief survey to share their experiences. Information from these surveys will be used in outreach with payers to help preserve open access and ensure quality outcomes for individuals requiring HME, supplies and services.

Links to the individual state surveys and additional information and resources to use in your outreach to beneficiaries and case managers can be found here.

Please note: in accordance with HIPAA requirements, suppliers and other providers are prohibited from using customers’ e-mail addresses (or their family caregiver’s e-mail) for this purpose. Survey responses are requested by September 30.

For additional information on the survey, please contact Ashley Plauché, AAHomecare’s manager of government affairs at ashleyp@aahomecare.org.
