Notes:17

A - If an out of state supplier, you must obtain the Out of State Mail Order Pharmacy License or register as a DME provider with the Idaho Board of Pharmacy.

B - A Respiratory Therapist license or Polysomnography Technologist is required for set-up, adjustments, or any hands-on therapy. A supplier may contract with a licensed individual to provide this service to the patient.

C - An optician is permitted to grind or supply, dispense, replace or duplicate any ophthalmic lens in conformity with the prescription or instruction of any optometrist or physician duly licensed to practice within the state. Idaho currently has no legislation that establishes optician training, certification, or licensing requirements. (Added 06/22/2015)

Z - As of 2008, Cochlear Implants are no longer considered DME, and they are now paid through Part B
