December 21, 2020 Categories: Blog The holidays are approaching, and that means we are nearing the end of 2020! We can all agree that 2020 was an eventful year, but we are looking forward to what 2021 will bring. As we reflect on the last year, we are even more thankful for those who have been on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the home medical equipment (HME) suppliers who have ensured that you and your loved ones continued to receive the products and services you rely on, including oxygen, ventilators, and... November 17, 2020 Categories: Blog For years, the home medical equipment (HME) industry has suffered from continuous reimbursement cuts to home medical products and services, including oxygen equipment and supplies. If providers continue facing unsustainable reimbursement levels, your access to the equipment and services that you rely on could be in jeopardy. We must ensure that the suppliers of these goods and services continue to stay in business. They are especially critical during the pandemic, as HME suppliers... October 22, 2020 Categories: Blog The United States is less than two weeks away from the 2020 general election. Like most things that have happened in 2020, this election has been at the forefront of many people’s minds. Not only will we decide who will be the president for the next four years, we will have to decide who we want in Congress and every office down the ballot. To us at PFQC, an election means that there is an opportunity for all of us to make a change for those affected by poor health care policies...

July 21, 2020 Categories: Blog There have been many news stories and updates about the increase in the number of cases for COVID-19. It is important to remember that with this spike in cases, home medical equipment (HME) providers will continue to be on the frontlines of this pandemic, ensuring patients continue to receive the products and services you need at home, such as oxygen, ventilators, and other forms of equipment for patients who may be discharging from the hospital. They are delivering to homes that could possibly... June 15, 2020 Categories: Blog At some point in our lives, we all will need to rely on the use of home/durable medical equipment, whether it be something as simple as a walking aid to gain stability or something more complex, like a custom wheelchair or a non-invasive ventilator to assist with breathing. When that day comes, it will become an important part of you and your family’s life. Quality and accessibility cannot be sacrificed. Durable medical equipment providers are on the frontlines of the COVID-19...
