Why Choose Kokua Medical?

Why Choose
Kokua Medical?

We’re specialized

One of the challenges of working with most DME providers, is that they save their “newest and best” equipment for traditional Medicare home patients, leaving their “oldest and worst” equipment for their hospice and nursing facility customers. Because Kokua Medical focuses “exclusively” on hospices and nursing facilities, we ensure that these customers get the “newest and best” equipment.

We’re well stocked

Another challenge with most DME providers is that most are small operators that lack the financial resources to purchase and stock an adequate supply of “excess” equipment to fulfill unpredictable last minute orders from high volume hospice and nursing facility operators. Kokua Medical stocks ample excess equipment to fulfill same day orders we receive from our customers for any type of DME equipment, including specialty equipment our competitors don’t even stock.

We deliver after hours and on weekends

Another frustration with most DME providers is that they either lack the resources to accommodate after-hours and weekend deliveries, or they are unwilling to deliver after-hours and weekends without charging an after-hours delivery fee. Because last minute orders and after-hours deliveries are common for our hospice and nursing facility customers, Kokua Medical does not charge a delivery or pickup fee for last minute orders regardless of the time day or night, weekend or holiday. Plus, we have the ability to fulfill orders more quickly than any other provider in our service area.

We offer the newest equipment

Finally, Kokua Medical purchases larger volumes of equipment than any other DME provider servicing hospices and nursing facilities in our service areas. Our large purchasing volume gives us the ability to provide newer, higher quality equipment than any of our competitors.
