* No cost means that their is no cost or monthly subscription fees to the HME supplier. ADSI does not conduct or condone freebie oximetry testing as put out in a statement by the OIG in 2006. We bill for each and every test prior to a bill being sent to a patient or before it is written off as a bad debtor or uncollectable. Read the full OIG letter about freebie oximetry testing here and how it is considered an inducement to refer.
