This quick-check guide helps hospice operations and clinical leaders evaluate the reliability of their current DME model. By answering a series of yes/no questions, COOs, administrators, and office managers can identify where breakdowns in coverage, fulfillment, communication, or accountability may be introducing clinical risk, operational strain, or hidden cost.

This one-page checklist empowers hospice leaders to quickly assess their DME process and uncover where time, money, or oversight may be slipping through the cracks. It is designed to spark internal conversations and highlight how small process improvements, not vendor overhauls, can unlock meaningful savings.
