Is the 6 months maintenance and service (MS) following the 36 month period a definitive 6 months?

A. Yes, the supplier must check on the equipment at least every 6 months to insure it is in working order. If the equipment requires servicing more frequently the supplier is required to service the items as often as necessary, Medicare, however, will not pay for a visit that takes place any sooner than 6 months after the last day of the 36th continuous paid rental month. The decision for maintenance and service payments beyond 2009 is still pending so only one MS payment is allowed in 2009.
