prescriptions or not

Posted By: nmj4354 on November 4, 2010

Hello,

I have a question, it was asked of me and I am not sure where to go for an
answer. I will check around on the internet.
Question:
If a person comes into your facility and offers to pay cash for an
orthotic/prosthesis do you need a prescription, CMN and all the paperwork
from the Dr? My line if thinking is that the paperwork is to file on
insurances for the devices. The items and/or components are not regulated by
the government are they? If so by who? . Any thoughts???

Thank you,
