Medical Oxygen Home Use — GP / Specialist Prescription Pathway
Form number: Medicare/State
Long-term home oxygen therapy (LTOT) for COPD, pulmonary fibrosis, severe heart failure follows a multi-step prescription pathway — GP referral, respiratory physician assessment with arterial blood gases, and funding via the state oxygen assistance scheme (not Medicare directly). Cylinder vs concentrator vs liquid oxygen depends on usage hours.
