Supporting Providers of Home Medical Equipment and Services

in the Home with Leadership, Knowledge, and Advocacy

The Home Medical Equipment and Services Association of New England (HOMES) is the regional trade association for providers of home medical equipment and supplies, home oxygen and infusion therapy, and complex rehabilitation technology. Founded in 1988, HOMES' broad membership works together supporting the common goals and interests of the HME industry.

Originally founded in 1976, HOMES members & staff are deeply engaged in legislative and regulatory issues throughout New England and the country as one of the country's oldest and most respected home medical equipment associations.

Today, more than ever, it is imperative to stay current on government regulations and reimbursement guidelines set forth by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). HOMES provides home medical equipment providers and product manufacturers an opportunity to work together. By working closely with the American Associate for Homecare (AAHomecare), HOMES offers a powerful voice in Washington. Healthcare issues on the regional and state level are identified and addressed by HOMES' active committees.

Joining HOMES will give your company a competitive edge in the market place by offering the opportunity to network with other industry professionals to resolve complex issues that affect the home care industry.
