I have a family practice and an urgent care who is handing out arm slings. For me to bill these arm slings, does the practices need a DME license?

Thanks for any help with this.
 
That's a good question because i work for a DME company and i have billed for a arm sling only to have claim denied stating this should have been included in physician's fee, so we do not bill for the arm sling. :)
 
I bill for urgent cares and have had some of the ins reimburse if i subbmitted it with mod-59. For these types of things i have found it really depends on the ins and persons policy. Money wise I think Kvangoor;s suggestion would probably be best. When not knowing how they will remburse you might lose out.
