The supplier is not required to furnish oxygen or oxygen equipment while you are in the hospital or nursing home. However, when you return home, the supplier that furnished your equipment in the 36th month is required to furnish the equipment for any period of medical need for the remainder of the reasonable useful lifetime of the equipment.
