State Medicaid's Deep Cuts Go Into Effect on July 1st

Virginia makes significant Medicaid reimbursement reductions in efforts to achieve a balanced budget.

RICHMOND, VA (June 28, 2010) – State legislators recently passed the 2010 Appropriations Act, Chapter 874 in an effort to balance the 2010-2012 state budget. Virginia Constitution requires the governor to ensure state budgetary expenditures do not exceed total revenues during the fiscal period. In order to do so, legislators were tasked with balancing the budget based on revenues that mirror collections in Virginia over five years ago.

Recently, the Department of Medical Assistance Services (DMAS) engaged an independent contractor, CGI Group, Inc. (CGI), to conduct a review of DMAS reimbursement rates for durable medical equipment (DME) services. Based on CIG recommendations, legislators approved reimbursement reductions for diabetes products by 15%, incontinence supplies by 10%, wound care supplies by 10%, ostomy/colostomy supplies by 5% and reductions to many additional DME supply categories.

In the incontinence supply category, these approved changes result in the patient receiving a maximum of 100 units of product per month without prior authorization, representing a significant reduction from previous levels. This reduction may be offset by a prior authorization process that adds cost and complexity for providers, yet allows qualified patients to compliantly receive the supplies they need. According to the Wound, Ostomy, and Continence Nurses Society (WOCN), inadequate incontinence supplies may result in premature institutionalization. Today, urinary incontinence affects over 20 million Americans and is a key factor in the decision to institutionalize a person. Effective management of incontinence can enable an individual to remain in their home, thereby possibly preventing costly premature institutionalization.

Home Care Delivered CEO and Founder, Gordy Fox stated, "Home Care Delivered, Inc. is prepared for the significant state Medicaid reimbursement reductions that go into effect on Thursday, July 1, 2010, without any disruption of supplies or services to patients." Over the last five years, Home Care Delivered has built a state-of-the-art proprietary technology platform that ensures accurate, highly efficient and fully compliant processing of all patient orders and insurance provider claims. Fox went on to say, "These are difficult times for the entire healthcare system, and Home Care Delivered has worked hard to be a very efficient provider while delivering optimal service to our patients, insurance providers and physicians."

Home Care Delivered, Inc. Launches a New Vacuum Therapy
Category to Service Patients with Erectile Dysfunction

Virginia-based Home Care Delivered, Inc. announces the launch of the EliteCustom® Vacuum Therapy System as a conservative treatment option for patients with Erectile Dysfunction (ED).

RICHMOND, VA (February 19, 2010) – Home Care Delivered, Inc. announces a new Vacuum Therapy Supply Program with the launch of the EliteCustom® Vacuum Therapy System, manufactured by Augusta Medical. Vacuum Therapy is a non-invasive treatment option for ED that is covered by Medicare and other insurance plans for qualified patients.

ED affects an estimated 30 million men nationwide and it is estimated that up to 75% of men with diabetes will experience at least some degree of ED during their lifetime.

Because of the strong correlation between Diabetes and ED, the Vacuum Therapy Category was a natural fit to extend our product offering for current and future patients. We are a company dedicated to helping our patients improve their quality of life, and the EliteCustom® is certainly a quality of life product.

Vacuum Therapy is 98% effective and is a proven method of sexual enhancement for men with ED. Vacuum Therapy systems use gentle negative pressure to mimic the body’s natural function and help patients achieve an erection. Often the oral medications used to treat ED cannot be used due to how they affect a person’s blood pressure or because they are too costly. Vacuum Therapy is a proven, non-invasive treatment option that is simple, safe, effective and affordable.

“We understand that ED is a sensitive topic for patients to discuss; however, we want our customers who may have ED to know that they are not alone and that there are treatment options available,” said Director of Clinical Resources Terri Decker. “It is important for patients experiencing ED to talk with their physician to determine the cause and discuss treatment options. Vacuum Therapy is an effective alternative to oral medications or surgery for many men.”

Home Care Delivered is committed to supporting patients managing chronic conditions from home through the consistent delivery of medically necessary supplies delivered when and where the patient needs them. In addition to Vacuum Therapy products, the Company offers a complete selection of diabetes testing, incontinence, ostomy, urology, and wound care supplies. Additional services and support include billing and claims processing services for Medicare, Medicaid and other insurance plans, product samples, educational support, regular follow-up calls and access to a nurse-on-call for product support.

Home Care Delivered Wins Medicare Competitive Bidding Contracts

Home Care Delivered, Inc. is a Medicare Contract Supplier selected to provide Mail-order Diabetes Testing Supplies for Medicare Beneficiaries in several Competitive Bidding Areas.

RICHMOND, VA (May 27, 2008) – Home Care Delivered, Inc. was recently awarded several Supplier Contracts by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to provide Mail-order Diabetes Testing Supplies to Medicare Beneficiaries in five out of the ten Competitive Bidding Areas (CBAs) included in the first round of CMS's Competitive Biding Program. These areas include: Cincinnati-Middletown, OH-KY-IN, Cleveland-Elyria-Mentor, OH, Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX, Pittsburgh, PA and Miami-Fort Lauderdale-Miami Beach, FL.

The Competitive Bidding Program, which was mandated as part of the Medicare Prescription Drug Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, is a bidding style process which is eventually expected to be expanded nationally. The intent of the program is to save money while ensuring that Medicare Beneficiaries receive quality medical equipment, supplies and services. Under the new Competitive Bidding Program, suppliers must be awarded a Supplier Contract in order to provide certain durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies (DMEPOS) to Medicare Beneficiaries. Effective July 1, 2008, only winning Contract Suppliers for the initial 10 CBAs will be able to provide Medicare Beneficiaries whose permanent residence is within an affected CBA with certain items and file claims with Medicare for payment.

Home Care Delivered was forward thinking during the initial bidding process and selected areas that were geographically beneficial for us to service. These five CBAs were strategically selected as they make the most sense for our business. We have been positioning account managers and distribution points close to or inside all five of the CBAs that we were awarded. Home Care Delivered is well-positioned to provide outstanding service to Beneficiaries within these areas.

Home Care Delivered has been preparing for Competitive Bidding for well over two years. Preparations include a heavy investment in our technology infrastructure, a new state-of-the-art VOIP phone system, a new patient billing system and a second call center that has the capacity for an additional 150 seats. Since 2005 Home Care Delivered has been accredited through the Community Health Accreditation Program (CHAP). Knowing that quality accreditation by an independent organization would be one of the Competitive Bidding mandates, Home Care Delivered took on the intensive year long process to become CHAP accredited well in advance.

The supply program offers diabetes, urological, wound care, and ostomy supplies. All patients who enroll with Home Care Delivered receive benefits of their CompleteCare Promise, which includes fast, reliable delivery of diabetes supplies and other Medicare-covered medical supplies, insurance verification, friendly refill reminder calls, and access to a registered nurse who is available to assist with product related questions.

(PRWEB) December 12, 2007— Home Care Delivered, Inc. announces a new division of their website HomeCareDelivered.com that offers Medicare beneficiaries quick and easy enrollment in their supply management program, fast and reliable delivery of supplies, insurance verification, and access to a registered nurse. Diabetic, urological, wound-care, and ostomy patients who are enrolled in Medicare can benefit from the 5 Point CompleteCare Promise, which includes thousands of brand-name and Medicare-covered diabetes supplies, insurance verification, delivery of supplies in one to two business days, refill reminder calls, and toll free access to a registered nurse on staff. The website enhancements complement the broad suite of benefits available from Home Care Delivered, Inc. since 1996.

Gordy Fox founded Home Care Delivered following his own experience with family members aging and living with chronic medical conditions. He realized that it wasn’t easy for people in a home setting to get the information or supplies, including Medicare diabetes supplies, that they needed to care for themselves or to follow a physician’s treatment plan properly. The 3-channel HomeCareDelivered.com site is designed to support retailers, professional caregivers, and now, Medicare patients.

“We are very excited about the launch of our Medicare Web site,” reports CEO Gordy Fox. “The site is designed to provide patients with the information they need regarding our services, support, and supplies, and to make enrollment in our supply management program quick and easy for the patient.”

Online enrollment in Home Care Delivered’s supply management program is hassle-free; a Patient Care Specialist calls and walks the patient through the enrollment process, performs an insurance verification, and obtains all necessary authorizations from the patient’s physician. The supplies are then sent and delivered to the patient in only 1-2 business days. They handle billing Medicare and secondary insurance on the patient’s behalf, and conduct friendly refill reminder calls.

“At Home Care Delivered, our Patient Care Specialists follow up with our patients on a regular basis so they don’t have to worry about reordering,” says Gordy Fox. “We strive to provide the best supplies and support in the industry.”

Reordering is stress free: Home Care Delivered stocks top quality products from name-brand manufacturers like Home Diagnostics, Inc., Bayer, and Abbott. In addition to diabetes supplies, Home Care Delivered is also able to provide ostomy, urological, and wound care supplies.

Home Care Delivered Opens Clarksville Facility

Richmond-based company to hire 140 teammates over next 30 months

RICHMOND, Va., May 10, 2006 – Home Care Delivered, one of the premier direct-to-consumer medical supply companies in the nation, today becomes the first of three technology firms to open its offices in the newly built Virginia Lakeside Commerce Park, located off of U.S. 58 east of Clarksville.

Home Care Delivered will use the 9,000-square-foot facility as a call center, serving patients, referral sources and caregivers across the United States. The center will be staffed with 140 new hires over the next 30 months. The company plans to maintain its headquarters in Henrico County.

“This call center is critical to our long-term success,” said Home Care Delivered CEO Gordy Fox. “In addition to bringing jobs and tax revenue to Southside Virginia, this facility will allow Home Care Delivered to continue its expansion and provide home-delivered medical supplies to the thousands of people suffering from chronic illnesses.”

Central to the Home Care Delivered experience is that its employees, which the company refers to as “teammates,” embrace a caring approach. This culture of corporate citizenship will extend as well to Mecklenburg County as the company explores events and organizations with which to affiliate itself.

Gordy Fox founded Home Care Delivered in 1996 after experiencing first-hand the challenges associated with providing home health care for family members. The company delivers medical supplies to patients and supports professional and family caregivers across the country. For more information on Home Care Delivered, visit www.homecaredelivered.com.

Home Care Delivered Inc. excels in growth.

In 1996, Fox began Home Care Delivered. Since then it has been providing supplies to customers, mainly recently discharged hospital patients and senior citizens.

And when they need it, Fox and company are there to help. But Home Care Delivered services don't end at the time of delivery.

"We follow up," Fox said. Company representatives will keep in constant communication with customers, making sure medical supplies are always stocked and delivered quickly if more are needed.

Nurses are available in the Home Care Delivered offices, ready to take questions that customers may have about using any of the company's 2,500 medical products, such as catheters or glucose meters.

While there are other online medical supply companies, Fox said he prides himself on his company's service and quality products. Home Care Delivered relies on nurses and hospitals to help get the word out about its products.

But the nurses must be doing a good job of marketing the company, because Home Care Delivered is rising to the top and supplying a steady stream of medical products to its clients. The proof is in the replies.

"We get calls every week from caregivers that call to express appreciation," Fox said. "Those calls, or cards, or notes - that's what makes this business worthwhile."

Home Care Delivered recently received recognition as one of the fastest-growing, privately held companies in Virginia.
