Durable Medical
Equipment (DME)
What Is DME?
Durable medical equipment is prescribed by your doctor to aid in treatment, mobility, or daily activities. These tools are built for long-term use and play an important role in recovery and overall health management.
DME may be recommended after orthopedic surgery, during rehabilitation, or as part of a long-term treatment plan for conditions affecting mobility, strength, or stability.
DME helps support patients experiencing symptoms or conditions, such as:
- Difficulty walking, standing, or bearing weight
- Joint instability or weakness
- Recovery from orthopedic surgery
- Arthritis or other degenerative joint diseases
- Chronic pain or mobility limitations
- Fractures or sprains
