Durable Medical Equipment (DME) is any
equipment that provides therapeutic benefits to a patient in need
because of certain medical conditions and/or illness. They consist
of items that are primarily and customarily used to serve a medical
purpose; are not useful to a person in the absence of illness or
injury; are ordered or prescribed by a physician; are reusable; can
stand repeated use, and are appropriate for use in the home. Other
devices covered in this guidance include prosthetic equipment
(cardiac pacemakers), hearing aids, orthotic items (artificial
devices such as braces and splints), and prostheses (artificial
body parts). The information collected will assist in the
determination of Peace Corps eligibility. If eligible, it will
assist with ongoing care during service. All applicants to the
Peace Corps must have a medical clearance that will determine their
ability to serve in a particular country.
