Portable Oxygen Concentrators: What are they and how do they work?
Portable oxygen concentrators, or POCs, are lightweight medical devices that dispense oxygen while being highly portable. They allow those prescribed medical oxygen to carry their own oxygen supply with them wherever they go, eliminating dependence on bulky and heavy oxygen tanks. The lightest POC on the market, the OxyGo FIT, weighs just 2.8 pounds. In the past decade POCs have made an enormous contribution to the effectiveness of oxygen delivery therapy. They are easier for patients to use and less expensive for providers to service. Before their development, patients needing oxygen at home depended on heavy oxygen tanks to dispense their oxygen. They were tethered to these tanks and could not leave home easily. Their only option to get out of the house was to attach themselves to smaller oxygen tanks on wheels and drag those tanks around with them. Such tanks can still be used today but they are obtrusive, call attention to the person using them and have restrictions as to where they can be taken. POCs have become an oxygen patient’s gateway to freedom. They do this by making their own oxygen from the air around them. POCs often enable oxygen patients to enjoy activities and exercises that were difficult or not possible while using oxygen tanks. This gives these patients a welcome sense of freedom that enhances their quality of life. Studies show that POCs help patients live longer lives by promoting mobility and exercise

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: October 14, 2019 Orlando, FL: OxyGo LLC, a leader in the portable oxygen concentrator market celebrated their 5th anniversary this past Friday. In 2014 OxyGo launched its first portable oxygen concentrator, to meet the needs of today’s portable oxygen patients. Five years later, OxyGo has three different units and has been rated the best POC for three years in a row by a Needham & Company report. “Five years ago, we entered a highly competitive market, but we knew we had something very different and special to offer,” said Victoria Marquard-Schultz, OxyGo, CEO. “Since then we have continued to make it our mission to provide patients as well as providers with the very best POCs on the market.” OxyGo offers an original 5-setting concentrator, OxyGo FIT weighing only 2.8lbs, and OxyGo NEXT. The NEXT is the latest unit which came out this year and it is setting the standard for portable oxygen concentrators. At only 4.7 pounds, and with 6 flow settings, the OxyGo NEXT offers the highest oxygen output per pound of weight of any portable oxygen concentrators currently on the market. Other features include a long battery life of up to 13 hours with the optional double battery, access to the My OxyGo App, a large LCD screen, and is one of the quietest POCs on the market at 38 dB.

Medtrade Atlanta 2018: Visit Us at Booth 1317!
Get the Most out of Medtrade! The 2018 Medtrade show at Atlanta’s World Congress Center next month promises a continuation of the “Wow Factor” many attendees and exhibitors commented on at the spring 2018 Medtrade show in Las Vegas. Looking back at the Las Vegas 2018 show, the big company winners that emerged from its New Product Pavilion were: Convexity Scientific Inc. of Fairfield, CT with a portable pocket nebuilizer; X TOP for Men, McAirlaid’s Inc. of Rocky Mount, VA with a wetness protection product for men; Werth, LLC of Grand Rapids, MI, with a storage rack for walkers. Big winners for new products at the fall 2018 Medtrade Show New Product Pavilion will be determined at the end of the show which will run from October 15 - 18. Looking forward, here’s a preview of the show: More than 270 exhibitors on the expo floor are expected to greet about 2,500 attendees. Many of them are HME providers who will be attending the show to find everything from basic healthcare products to the latest innovations in mobility, respiratory, oxygen POCs, sleep, rehab and aids for daily living. OxyGo®, a leading marketer of POCs, will be at booth #1317 this year. It will feature the OxyGo FIT™, the lightest POC on the market,” said OxyGo sales manager Jon Schultz. POCs have become the fastest-growing segment within the home oxygen supply market. They will also highlight Applied Home Healthcare Equipment, the O
Visit Us At Medtrade Spring
All aboard for the "Medtrade Spring 2018" show! It comes to the Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Convention Center March 27-29. It's hte second largest trade show in the U.S. focused exclusively on the home medical equipment market. Emerald Expositions, the show's owner, touts Medtrade Spring 2018 as designed to give today's providers the highest quality educational, networking, and advocacy opportunities -- and the largest selection of HME products under one roof. While considerably smaller than the fall Medtrade show held in Atlanta every year, the spring event is noted for attracting a home healthcare crowd hungry for new products, especially in the retail sector. One provider I talked to says he always tries to come back home from the Las Vegas show with at least three new retail products to help him keep "ahead" of his competition. While booth sales have reportedly remained brisk for Medtrade 2018, there is one class of exhibitors that has not been asked back. York Schwab, Account Executive for the show, said earlier this year, "We are not selling booth space to face cream companies that were roundly criticized in post-show surveys. We rejected them all, and in 2018 there will be zero. " One of the most popular draws of the show is the New Products Pavilion. Sponsored by HomeCare Magazine, it's where exhibitors showcase products released to the market within the past year. Attendees will have the opportunity to cast th
FAA-Compliant OxyGo Takes to the Skies
Are air travel logistics with your POC a source of anxiety? OxyGo and OxyGo FIT are FAA-Compliant portable oxygen solutions! On August 23, 2016, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) made a rule change that streamlined the process of approving portable oxygen concentrators (POCs). Rather than continuing to approve POCs on a case-by-case basis, the FAA has established acceptance criteria for POCs used on aircraft. Each compliant POC needs to have a label from the manufacturer identifying it as adhering to this critera. We're happy to announce that our OxyGo and OxyGo Fit is FAA-compliant, and bears the necessary labeling on the back of the device. OxyGo FIT keeps going—and helps you soar to new heights!

Changing Oxygen Delivery Methods Equal Profit Potential for DMEs
Jason Flanigan, Applied Home HealthCare’s national accounts manager, has seen the future and it is loaded with high profit potential for DME’s and HME’s that ride the wave of change taking place in oxygen delivery methods. “The way to survive the future with oxygen is to get as many of your patients off cylinder delivery as you can,” says Jason. “The market is changing in favor of POCs because POCs are what patients want and POC’s such as OxyGo® make so much more economic sense in today’s competitive and regulatory environment.” Looking at it from voice of the doctor and the patient, Jason points out that availability and quality is the key. Medicare reimbursement numbers show a clear growing trend toward the use of POC’s. Doctors want to know that the DME they recommend can take care of their oxygen recommendations and carry the POC products their patients need and the brands they request. Patients are demanding high quality products because they are seeing their co-pays rise and DME’s are making more cash sales because of insurance changes. Jason sees a large opportunity for DME’s to grow their business right now by taking advantage for the top requested POCs, selling them for cash, and using the top quality models to phase in a non-delivery plan. This can be done, Jason says, by putting POC’s on heavy oxygen tank users at first. Then DME’s should offer POCs exclusive
