Question
Will medicare pay for some of this??

Answer

Dear Mark:

Our company does not deal with Medicare.  The best advice we can offer is to identify a DME (durable medical equipment) provider in your area (see local yellow pages listings) and work with them to determine if you qualify for Medicare reimbursement.  Medicare has strict guidlines and a doctors perscription is not enough to qualify.

Good luck.

Question
I am looking to purchase what I think is called an IV Catheter. I have seen it previously at my OB/GYN office. It's about 10 inches long and is actually a SKINNY, SKINNY plastic syringe (no needle). We have used this item in the past to inseminate sperm to become pregnant. Do you have this item or know exactly what it is called so that I can purchase it?? Thank you.

Answer

Dear Donna:

An IV catheter would not be appropriate for your stated objectives.  We would recommend visitng an OBGYN office for this type of a procedure.
