Over 2.5 million Americans rely on durable medical equipment (DME) to give them dignity and autonomy while suffering from a range of chronic, often debilitating conditions.¹ But navigating DME ordering, coverage, and delivery remains complex for patients and providers alike.

HMP (Home Medical Products) adopted Parachute Health over 2 years ago because their sales reps were struggling to get clean orders to operations, who then could not get orders to patients on time without the paperwork. They tried Parachute Health, and have not looked back! HMP teams are now three times more productive, and can grow business volume with excellent customer service and fast turnaround times. Read on for all the benefits they’ve seen by adopting Parachute Health. 

How long does it take your patients to get diabetes supplies - a month? ePrescribing puts a huge dent in that timeline with clean, complete orders suppliers can accept right away!

Keeping up with the evolving rules for DME ordering from different patient health plans and for different suppliers is a daunting task. And it takes time away from the reason most clinicians chose their career path — helping patients! What’s even worse, not keeping up with the rules leads to errors and inefficiencies, potentially causing delays and discouraging outcomes for patients. Especially when you lose sight of the order after faxing. Read on for a User Story of how ePrescribing on Parachute changes all that. 

Parachute Health is honored to be named to the Digital Health 100 list, for the second year in a row! 

Parachute Health has released the second annual State of DME ePrescribing report that showcases an accelerating transition of the durable medical equipment (DME) industry to ePrescribing. In addition to rapid adoption of DME ePrescribing, data trends highlight opportunities for optimizing patient care and growth for healthcare facilities, clinicians, DME suppliers and manufacturers, health plans, and payviders in 2023 and beyond. 

When it comes to DME orders, a lot of variables can impact wait times for providers and their patients. In particular, wait times for doctors’ signatures, the length of time it takes to submit orders for doctors to sign, and time to order acceptance on the supplier side can contribute to massive delays. The Parachute Platform combines the power of fast order submission, speedy eSigning, and quick, reliable order acceptance to achieve best-in-class ordering speeds and consistently clean, complete orders—with most orders on the path to fulfillment in a day or less.

Parachute Health, the leading DME platform offering the full range of online DME order options, has joined AAHomecare as its newest Diamond Partner, the partners reported in a press release Monday. “We’re gratified to see another highly regarded company step up their support for high-impact DME public policy efforts at a critical time for this industry,” said Tom Ryan, AAHomecare president and CEO, about the decision.

November is National Diabetes Awareness Month, but people with diabetes have to monitor their disease year-round. Parachute Health’s seamless ordering workflow helps suppliers and clinicians communicate at every step, meaning faster order fulfillment for suppliers and less time lost by clinicians, so that they can focus on what matters most: treating the patients in their care.
