In this volatile time for our industry my membership in MAMES is a business expense that I cannot do without. MAMES has been a voice for our industry when we have been too busy just trying to keep ahead of the next wave.

“It's hard to know where to start when it comes to all the benefits of being a MAMES member. I think for me, the most important benefit is the advocacy that MAMES provides. When there are tough issues facing the DME industry, I know that MAMES will be there on my behalf. MAMES has exceptional working relationships with AA HomeCare, other state associations and CMS just to name a few. MAMES really allows me to stay on top of what's going on in the industry. From biannual meetings and educational sessions to the weekly MAMES FYIs, the opportunities are endless. I can't stress enough the importance of belonging to a regional organization. When there are issues related to my state Medicaid program or a payer specific to my area, MAMES is there to pull the providers together and tackle the issues. These are benefits you don't obtain from a national organization. The value we receive from our membership is immeasurable’.

MAMES offers the ability for small providers in the state to combine their efforts or voices. This allows for us to have a greater impact on political decisions which in the end is what allows us to be profitable.

Without MAMES, I as a small business manager would not know what is going on at both the state and federal levels. As a manager for LMI I have enough to do with operating the buisiness and taking care of my employees. It would be harder for me to keep up with everything happening without MAMES. So having MAMES on our side has been and is very helpful and is instrumental in our day to day operations. It is very nice to know that we have someone watching out for the issues that affect us everyday.
