Not a bad idea, and the one that I usually live my life by. But sometimes, scamming seems far more likely to me. In this case, who knows. Would a medicare request be for a single person or for a whole clinic? That sounded like a LOT of catheters.

300 caths would be 10 per day for a month, which could well be reasonable. I know some folks who need caths can't sense needing the bathroom, so just tapping it every couple of hours seems sensible. Need input from a doc or a nurse more familiar with it and they would probably need to know why the person has to use a cath....
A 5 month supply at once does sound a bit off, but that also may be normal.
