About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Minnesota's Department of Human Services conditions DMEPOS supplier enrollment in Minnesota Health Care Programs (MHCP) on a $50,000 surety bond. DMEPOS stands for durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies — the bond is a program-integrity guarantee that you bill MHCP honestly and follow the program rules.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the State of Minnesota (the obligee). If a supplier submits improper claims, fails to repay an overpayment, or otherwise violates the program rules, the state can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The $50,000 amount applies to suppliers enrolling new or with MHCP revenue up to and including $300,000; higher-revenue suppliers post a $100,000 bond, which we also write.

Minn. Stat. 256B.04, subd. 21Minnesota Statutes 256B.04, subdivision 21, authorizes the Department of Human Services to require a surety bond as a condition of enrollment for certain provider types, and DHS requires a $50,000 surety bond from DMEPOS suppliers (rising to $100,000 for suppliers whose prior-year MHCP revenue exceeds $300,000), filed on the DHS surety bond form. Confirm the amount that applies to you against your DHS enrollment notice.

FAQ

Common questions.

Do I pay the $50,000?No. You pay $1,000 — our carrier's flat price for this bond. The $50,000 is the surety's maximum liability to the state; it's not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.

Who requires this bond?The Minnesota Department of Human Services requires it as a condition of enrolling as a DMEPOS supplier in Minnesota Health Care Programs, under the authority of Minn. Stat. 256B.04, subd. 21. No active bond, no enrollment.

Should I get the $50,000 or the $100,000 bond?The $50,000 bond applies to new enrollees and suppliers whose prior-year MHCP revenue was up to and including $300,000. If your prior-year MHCP revenue exceeded $300,000, DHS requires the $100,000 bond. Check your DHS notice, or send it to us and we will confirm.

Is there a credit check?A quick soft credit check may apply — never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score. It informs approval, not price: the $1,000 price is fixed either way.

When does it renew?Terms run 1, 2, or 3 years. DHS requires the bond renewed annually for as long as you're enrolled, so we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out with autopay available — your enrollment never lapses over a missed email.
