DMEPOS Pharmacy

Ensure that you meet the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) requirements to gain Medicare Part B billing privileges through our reliable, cost-effective durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies (DMEPOS) accreditation. NABP’s DMEPOS Pharmacy Accreditation is a three-year accreditation that is best suited for pharmacies that distribute DMEPOS products and services. This accreditation proudly shows Medicare beneficiaries who visit your pharmacy that they receive quality products, services, and patient care associated with DMEPOS products.

Whether NABP accreditation is new for your business or you are already NABP accredited and are looking to expand your portfolio, our processes simplify your journey toward DMEPOS Pharmacy Accreditation.

Apply for DMEPOS Pharmacy Accreditation as a stand-alone program or maximize your investment by creating a comprehensive compliance package for one streamlined, cost-effective accreditation process.

Maintaining DMEPOS Pharmacy Accreditation

DMEPOS suppliers must be reaccredited before the current accreditation expires. Unless a pharmacy has received a pharmacy accreditation exemption confirmation, we encourage suppliers to seek reaccreditation for a new, three-year period during the third year of your pharmacy’s DMEPOS accreditation. NABP will contact its DMEPOS-accredited pharmacies prior to the expiration date of their current three-year accreditation to begin the reaccreditation process. Accredited suppliers are also welcome to contact us any time to begin the process.

A Note About Revoked Accreditations: If accreditation is revoked because annual participation fees or reaccreditation fees are not paid, the Enrollment Contractor will revoke the Medicare billing number. If a supplier does not respond to the Enrollment Contractor’s revocation notice and the corrective action plan during the revocation process, the supplier will be suspended for one year from the Medicare program.
