Please join us for the fourth in a series of eight Special Open Door Forum (ODF) bidders’ conferences for the Round 1 Rebid of the Medicare DMEPOS (Durable Medical Equipment, Prosthetics, Orthotics, and Supplies) Competitive Bidding Program. At this Special ODF, we will provide an overview of the required financial documentation that must be submitted for each type of business structure and how bidders should report their capacity to serve beneficiaries. In addition, we will discuss special provisions for small suppliers and networks.

Background: 
On August 3, 2009, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued the bidding timeline for the Round 1 Rebid of the DMEPOS Competitive Bidding Program and initiated a comprehensive bidder education campaign. CMS’ Competitive Bidding Implementation Contractor (CBIC) is the focal point for bidder education. Please review this website for important information, including bidding rules, user guides, frequently asked questions, policy fact sheets, checklists, and bidding information charts. The CBIC toll-free help desk, 1‑877‑577‑5331, is open to help bidders with all of their questions and concerns. All suppliers interested in bidding are urged to sign up for E-Mail Updates on the home page of this website.
 
We look forward to your participation.
