A supplier must give the patient the option to purchase a rented piece of equipment that is a “capped rental” item during the tenth month of usage. The patient may choose to continue renting the item. However, rental payments cannot be made after 15 months; after which, the supplier charges a maintenance fee every six months thereafter. The fee is equivalent to one month’s rental.
