The wheeled mobility and seating procurement process through the Center of Medicare and Medicaid has been black and white for many years. However, there are often questions on appropriate documentation, timelines, and deadlines that arise. In this course we will “clear the mud” and help the clinician or assistive technology provider reach the finish line on the procurement process from the face-to-face visit to delivery and repair.
