For over 20 years, Health Care Medical has provided Home Medical Equipment and Supplies throughout the state of Mississippi.
Health Care Medical started in 2001 to provide Diabetic supplies, including shoes, and testing supplies services to home health patients in the metropolitan Jackson, Mississippi market.
With offices in Ridgeland, and Columbus, our services go beyond just medical equipment; we are the only provider in the state who provides Home Medical Equipment, Respiratory Equipment, Wound Therapy, Enteral Nutrition and more. Our clinical staff consists of registered nurses, a wound certified registered nurse, respiratory therapists, social workers, registered dietician, and a certified breast mastectomy fitter. Our clinical team works proactively with the patient and caregivers before discharge. This may be as simple as a pair of crutches, or as complex as a baby leaving the NICU on a Home Ventilator and Total Parenteral Nutrition.
Health Care Medical is here to meet our patient’s needs, and the need for home medical equipment can take you by surprise. You may need something for short-term recovery or a long-term medical condition, which is why it's important to make the right choice for your home medical equipment provider.
We are a Medicare contracted provider, participate in all Medicaid plans in the state of Mississippi, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Mississippi and hundreds of other commercial insurance networks.
