Scooter Store Files Lawsuit Against CMS

June 3, 2005

The Scooter Store said it filed a lawsuit against the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) — claiming the government is wrongly denying valid reimbursement claims for power-mobility equipment. The New Braunfels, Texas-based wheelchair and scooter distributor is seeking payment from Medicare for equipment sold to patients. Company officials have not yet assigned an exact dollar amount being sought from CMS. The company's lawyers argue that The Scooter Store should not have been denied certain medical claims because they were properly submitted with physicians' orders.
