Understanding this rate

Here is how the Medicare DMEPOS Fee Schedule arrives at the HCPCS K0005 amount above, and what it does and doesn't cover.

How DME is paid

Durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics and supplies are paid from the DMEPOS Fee Schedule, which sets a fee per state, with separate rural and non-rural amounts.

What this page shows
