U.S. Oxygen Therapy Device Markets

Frost & Sullivan, July 1999

Because a large percentage of revenues for home oxygen services are derived from Medicare, recently implemented restrictions on Medicare reimbursement are having significant effects on the market. This report analyzes the markets for concentrators, liquid oxygen systems, compressed gas systems, oxygen conservers, and regulators. It also includes in-depth discussions on the major diseases that require supplemental oxygen therapy as well as an evaluation of the impact of reimbursement cuts on the marketplace. The report also examines competitors' tactics and offers strategic recommendations. From Frost & Sullivan.
