DME/O&P Support for MSOs, IPAs & Medical Groups
MSOs, IPAs and medical groups can carry DME/O&P responsibilities through delegation, referral management or vendor relationships—sometimes with financial risk, sometimes without. ARCLYFT helps clarify what your organization is actually responsible for and how the work moves among operational, financial and clinical teams.
Questions We Help You Answer
Which DME/O&P responsibilities do our agreements actually assign to us, and which remain with the health plan or a vendor?
How are referrals routed today, and where do orders stall between physician offices, hospitals and vendors?
Do our vendor arrangements state delivery, fitting, follow-up and escalation expectations clearly enough to manage?
How do our operational, financial and clinical teams share information about DME/O&P decisions?

Arrangements differ. We do not assume that every MSO, IPA or medical group accepts financial risk or holds the same responsibilities, and ARCLYFT does not take over delegated, clinical or payer functions.
