Why Join PAMS?

There's no doubt that 2009 is going to be a challenging year for the HME industry. But challenging times are the very times that membership in an effective trade association such as PAMS is most critical. We exist to get you reliable answers. We are here to protect your interests. We are here to make a difference for Pennsylvania HME.

And there is also no denying that PAMS has proven itself to be a difference-maker:

• When a selective contracting program was set to take effect for Pennsylvania Medical Assistance and eliminate 97% of providers from the program, PAMS got it stopped.
• When Medicare competitive bidding threatened a 26.5 % cut in reimbursement rates and the elimination of more than 80% of providers from the Medicare program, PAMS led a successful national effort to delay the program.
• PAMS continues to be front and center in national efforts to repeal competitive bidding; to rehabilitate the image of the HME industry; to overhaul Medicare medical documentation requirements; and to bring common sense to the Medicare oxygen benefit.

The fact is that the tougher the times get, the MORE you need the strength and unity of a solid organization like PAMS.

Effective. Respected. Trusted. That's PAMS.

We are here to help you to operate your business profitably; to serve your clients properly; and to make sure that your voice is heard in the halls of government.

And we are here to make sure that you have access to the best and most timely education programming. Consider that PAMS offered the nation's first comprehensive review of CMS's new rules governing the 36-month oxygen cap at our December 16, 2008 Oxygen Workshop.

An investment in PAMS is an investment in the future of your business and our industry! Download the 2009 membership application now or contact our office for more information.
