Welcome to Connexion, the Durable Medical Equipment, Prosthetics, Orthotics, and Supplies (DMEPOS) Competitive Bidding Program secure portal.
Bidding suppliers can upload required bidding documents, view bid results, and respond to contract offers.
Contract suppliers can update their product information or phone number displayed in the Medicare Supplier Directory, add or remove eligible locations, inform CMS of subcontracting relationships or changes in ownership, and update and complete other contract information. Non-contract suppliers can access Connexion to provide specific change of ownership information.
Your Connexion dashboard will list requests you have submitted, their status, and a to-do list of items to complete, review, or approve based on your Connexion role.
