A new educational webcast for the Round 1 Recompete of the Medicare Durable Medical Equipment, Prosthetics, Orthotics, and Supplies (DMEPOS) Competitive Bidding Program is now available on this website. This webcast, titled Program Rules, explains important rules detailed in the Round 1 Recompete Request for Bids (RFB) instructions that you should understand before you prepare your bids. The webcast also provides resources to assist you with bidding. This webcast is available on demand to view at your convenience – 24 hours a day, seven days a week. There is no charge to view the webcast, and a transcript is also posted on the website. To view the webcast, select Round 1 Recompete, and then Educational Information. Next, click Education Events. We will be issuing more webcasts later in the bidder education program.
