Think of Us for Home Health Care Column #29, 2/16/01 by Jake Mossman, Owner of Taos
Pharmacy
Many people facing home health care or assisted living situations feel overwhelmed by the task. They are not sure what they need, where to get it, or if they can get help from insurance or Medicare to pay for it. At Taos Pharmacy we are dedicating ourselves to helping you with home health issues. We can help you with everything from needs assessment to billing.
Needs Assessment
Becky Mossman, owner and RN, has over 16 years of nursing experience in various settings. She can help you evaluate your needs and let you know what is available to meet those needs. She is willing to visit your home and offer advice to make life easier and more comfortable. We can provide you a needs list and recommended solutions.
Product Acquisition
Mark Abeyta, front-end manager, has over 20 years of experience in retail business. Mark can locate suppliers for most home health care products and, in most cases, offer you products in various price ranges. If we do not stock what you need, we can usually acquire it in 24 to 48 hours. If you need something on a regular basis, we are willing to add it to our stock.
Billing
Anna Martinez, insurance billing clerk, has experience billing insurance companies, state programs, and Medicare. If we can't bill items directly for you, we can help you fill out the claim forms to bill them yourself. We can tell you if an item is covered by your insurance plan or Medicare before you purchase.
We Carry a Large Selection of Disposable Home Health Products
Home health and safety items: bedpans, mattress pads, seat cushions, hand rails, elevated toilet seats, tub and shower stools.
Incontinence supplies: adult undergarments, liners, underpads, mattress covers, catheters, and drainage bags.
