CMS on Beneficiaries Medical Equipment and Supplies Replacement

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will permit individuals with Medicare who have lost or realized damage to their durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies as a result of the hurricane to receive replacements of such items and services. This will help to ensure beneficiaries can continue to access the needed medical equipment and supplies they rely on each day. People with Medicare can contact 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227) for assistance.
