Replacements, repairs and reimbursement

Device remedies run through the supply chain, so the route depends on who sold you the unit.

  • Contact the distributor or clinic named on your paperwork and quote the recall number on this page. They will tell you whether the remedy is a repair, a replacement or an instruction update.
  • If the device was billed to insurance or Medicare, the replacement is usually billed the same way; you should not face a second deductible for a recall.
  • Keep every piece of correspondence. If a recalled device caused harm, that paper trail is what a claim rests on.
  • Consumer-purchased devices such as monitors and test kits are normally replaced free, with return shipping paid.
