Crutches for ED Patients

Published

We have been asked to stop giving out crutches to ED patients (because we cannot collect on the charges). We see 38,000 patients a year...many indigent. We do not have a DME license and the hospital is not interested in getting one.

What are other hospitals doing about this?
